Hi,
After I installed rpm packages on my system, I am unable to connect to the
databse. I have installed in the following order
1)Server
2)Client
3)Devel
4)Shared Compat
After starting the databse with:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start
I am unable to login as:
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root
Hi,
Most likely your MySQL has no password for root in the default instalation.
Try:
# mysql -u root -p
and simly press enter when asked for the password.
Worked ?
Alright, so now it's time to give root a password:
# mysqladmin -u root password 'my_secret_password'
That's all that there is to it
