lost sa password

2004-03-18 Thread jose manuel
Hi all: Long time ago I've installed MySQL on my Debian Machine and I'm pretty sure I did'n left the sa pwd blank as recommended. Now, I'm installing other apps that need that sa pwd in order to be installed properly butI can't remember the pwd. is possible to recover the sa password?

You need to stop your MySQL process and then startup MySQL without the grant tables (skip-grant-tables option). You can then change the password. Here some documentation on how to do it in Windows, but it's pretty much the same for Unix. http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Resetting_permissions.html
