Thank you to all who posted offers/attempts of help. I have been looking
at this part time over a few days.
It turns out my problem was in my PHP code :(
I went through every bit of my mysql system. Everything was fine. I did
learn a few things :)
But, the new upgraded version required a medium strength password and
that includes a special character. I made what I thought was a simple
change in my web sites data.php file.
But, I put my PHP variables between double quotes. That caused the
special character in my password to expand and thereby become incorrect. :(
In future I will use single quotes for my passwords.

Suggestions for a help list for mysql are most welcome.
I have a LAMP for web site development and rarely need to touch the
database admin stuff.
It has been years. I am creating a new site with database but I can't
get the user to have privileges.
Can anyone spot what is wrong?
So I connect to the server with:
stephen@Avalon:~$ mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.?? Commands end with ; or \g.
