what's your distro?

If you installed it via RPM, you can use a manager to uninstall the client and the server. The DBs will still be there but you can clear that out manually in the data folder.

If you compiled it yourself then you're going to have to either remove it manually (i.e. deleting the folder structure and all related files by hand) or try looking up all flags available with the ./configure --help. There might be a remove script there.

To remove the packages you would use rpm -e packagename. You can list the MySQL packages you have installed by typing...

Code:

rpm -qa | grep MySQL

However, your main problem is that you have not setup a password for your root@localhost account. You can try the instructions in the following document:
