with "ls -lad /tmp" I get: drwxrwxrwt 14 root root 440 jun 4 21:39 /tmp with " ls -l /etc/mysql/debian.cnf " I get: -rw------- 1 root root 325 jun 4 20:15 /etc/mysql/debian.cnf does the error has to do with read/write permissions? using Mysql-admin (GUI) 5.0r14+openSUSE-2.1 (stable) Other note: When install and run MySQL server 5.5.23-2 (5.5.23+dfsg-2 amd64), MySQL run's with MySQL 'client' 5.1.62 -> libmysqlclient16 and not with mysql-client-5.5 (5.5.23+dfsg-2 amd64) -> libmysqlclient18 Unfortunately i can't use Mysql-workbench, i cant run this as root (to get full access to mysql server and databases) it has a problem with genome keyring. If you need more information, just ask... Thank you André
