since mysql is already installed in mandrake 7, I guess I should ask
here first.
What is the default password after install? I have tried deleteing and
remaking the database but I just get
# mysqladmin -u root -p ********
mysqladmin: connect to server at '' failed; error: 'Access denied for
user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)'
# mysql -u root -p ********
Enter password: ********
ERROR: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)
so apparantly I am not allowed because I do not know the password -
which I didn't setup.
