Hi
The command in the book (as root):
-----
mysqladmin -u root password

returns:
-----
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)'

I already had an existing database with a root password. When updating
mariadb to 10.1.21, using 'mysqladmin -u root password' failed for me also
with the message above. However, using:
sudo mysqladmin -u root -p password
and entering the old password, it allowed me to change it.
