Make sure you have granted permissions in the db for root to connect from the host you are
trying to connect from. Something like....
GRANT priv ON db.table TO 'root'@'hostname' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Subject: mysql odbc connection problem
Hi All
We are experiencing some problems when trying to connect to a mysql database
using ODBC.
The settings have been configured and it seems to be getting to the DB but
we getting the following error:
[S1T00][unixODBC][MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver]Access denied for user
'root'@'hostname'
(using password: YES)
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLConnect
can some perhaps assist please?
Regards
