Re: [cobalt-developers] mysql questions



I'm not sure if this will help, but here goes.

Run "locate mysql* |more" to list all the files and directories that have
"mysql" at the start of them.
You may have to run something like locate -u or something like that.  Also,
after you find the mysqladmin? program, you may have to allow full access to
all accounts, then re-assign the root password, then deny access to all, but
the appropriately allowed accounts.  I know this sounds very generalized,
but I ran into the same problem and I didn't record the exact commands
unfortunately.  I will be upgrading mysql either tomorrow or the next day
and if I run into the ssame thing, I will repost to your address and follow
up.
