RE: [cobalt-users] Need help with MySQL

["Frank-Jan Kamenz" <fjk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Are you using the Cobalt .pkg file?

If so, than you have to enter the standard password for the cobalt mysql
package.

This is not the root password, nor any other password used on the mysql
site, this is another special for the .pkg file, password.

I haven't got my Documentation at hand, so I am not sure what it was.

But you should be able to find that through the .pkg file.

Subject: [cobalt-users] Need help with MySQL


I have installed the MySQL package onto a RaQ 4 server.  With Telnet I
have root
privileges and I executed mysql_install_db and received the response
below.  I
have tried the following and in each case I am asked for a password and
I am
denigned access using the root password or leaving the password blank.

/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password "new_password"  [where new_password
is new
password]

/usr/bin/mysql -u root mysql

/usr/bin/mysql -u root -p mysql  [when asked I put in the root password
or leave
blank]

What have I missed?  Help!!

Installing all prepared tables

To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy support-files/mysql.server
to the
right place for your system

PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER ! This is done
with:

/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password 'new-password'

/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h www.mysite.org -p password 'new-password'

See the manual for more instructions.

NOTE: If you are upgrading from a MySQL <= 3.22.10 you should run the
/usr/bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables. Otherwise you will not be able to
use the
new GRANT command!

You can start the MySQL daemon with: cd / ; /usr/bin/safe_mysqld &

You can test the MySQL daemon with the benchmarks in the 'sql-bench'
directory:
cd sql-bench ; run-all-tests

Please report any problems with the /usr/bin/mysqlbug script!
