Hi. I'm trying to config mysql. I've done this before, and it worked well, and I took notes, but they're not helping at the moment. I haven't tried everything yet, and I'd rather come up with a plan than work from flawed notes.
On Debian, how do you set the mysql root user pword? I've tried mysql-admin, but I don't know what I'm doing. dpkg-reconfigure was no help. Once I can get in, I can create a user and work from there. (0) [root] infidel /root_ mysql ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) Once I'm in, I can: update mysql.user set password=password(...) where user='root'; How's this supposed to be done? -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
