hey im tryin to create a mysqldadmin password but it says that i have denied acsee for the user root@localhost
can someone help????? thanx!!!

Have you set the root password for mysql? Are you using localhost for your server name? What version of MySQL do you have? What Distro to you have?

I tend to think with forums you get what you put in. It seems that you are posting about 1 second after you have a problem which is rather annoying to say the least.

I would suggest taking a look at the documentation for chosen dist, try some things out and see how you get on. Have a search on this forum as im very sure someone has already had the same problem as you and will then find a solution.

When posting try to include as many details as possible as this will help people help you.

Mattar, do have a look at the link I posted recently - it answers this question and many more you have asked. Here it is again:

See chapter 34 for mysql

ok i have updated everything i can update i followed all instructions closely why will it not let me create a user password in mysqld?? it says "connect to server localhost failed" acsess denied (using password NO)" using fedora 5????? any help???? THANX!!!

What are you doing and how are you doing it (eg are you doing things from terminal, if so what commands are you typing)

This should work

#mysql -u root mysql

mysql> UPDATE user SET Password=PASSWORD('typre_password_here_in_single_quotes') WHERE User='root';

mysql> \q
