Shawn,
After you reset your MySQL root user password, did you reload the tables so that your new password would be recognized? That is done using either of the following:


mysqladmin -u root reload
mysqladmin -u root flush-privileges

NOTE: The "-u root" portion is based on an assumption that prior to changing your password, the password had been blank.
