Hi,
the root password for mysql is not the same as the password
for your linux system.
If you haven't set a password for mysql, you don't have any.
So you can check e.g. with:
mysqladmin ping
that you have not a password
or try
mysqladmin -p ping
and when he asks you: Password:
you press

Hi,

Dear friends,
I have tried to access the tables in the mysql database (the user, host tables) so as
to grant some privileges to a user and I think I accidentally deleted an entry for
root - the one that granted me access to mysql and now I cannot get in anymore from
any machine, it says access
