First of all, thanks a lot to everybody that tried to help out in the problem I had.... in the end what I ended up doing is I pulled out a = backup of all the databases one day before the breakdown, uninstalled mysql, reinstalled (in the process upgraded and added some patches) and now my = app is working again. Like I said thanks again to everybody that helped out! H=E9ctor S. Mendoza Ortiz -----Mensaje original----- De: H=E9ctor S. Mendoza O.

There are no anonymous users (ie. = Host=3D'localhost',user=3D'',passwd=3D'x'), I already checked that for precedence on search for password on users I already tried adding a host for localhost, for the IP address, for the hostname of the server and I have the same result. Thanks again for all the help received! H=E9ctor S.

(not needed to show output in email) Where you have old passwords, they will be short, such as +---------------+---------+------------------+ | host | user | password | +---------------+---------+------------------+ | localhost | root | 6ab112233de44558 | New passwords are longer: +-----------+---------+-------------------------------------------+ | host | user | password | +-----------+---------+-------------------------------------------+ | localhost | root | *17A3A389744F3F39AC4CE4CCFCAD6960D8EA03C9 | If your web server is not localhost, mix of web's old and new passwords may cause connection failure. --w On Wed, May 17, 2006 at 04:23:18PM -0500, H?ctor S.
