Hi all,
I'm a newbie at this, so here's a newbie question. I have installed
MySql on a Cobalt Raq 4 running Linux via a .pkg file. All seemed to go
well, I am able to get into the MySql directory via telnet but no commands
seem to work. See session below. Can anyone help me with putting a root
pass word on this?
[admin admin]$ mysql
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 10 to server version: 3.23.37
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer
mysql> bin/mysqladmin -password testpassword;
ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax near
'bin/mysqladmin -password
testpassword' at line 1
mysql> bin/safe_mysqld &;

Thanks,
