Hi,
I just installed MySQL from RPMs. When I try to connect to the MySQL server
and change the root password as the install message tells me it gives me an
error:
[serva@bmama serva]$ mysqladmin -u root password passwd2000
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)'
[serva@bmama serva]$
Same error when I try as root (tried with and without quotes):
[root@bmama serva]# mysqladmin password 'passwd2000'
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)'
[root@bmama serva]#
RPMs installed:
MySQL-3.22.23b-1.i386.rpm
MySQL-client-3.22.23b-1.i386.rpm
MySQL-devel-3.22.23b-1.i386.rpm
Probably something very obvious I am missing here, but I can't find it :(
Checked the manuals, the readme files. Zip. Nada. Nothing. Any ideas?
Thnx!
Jonathan
