Greetings Renegade Community.
I'm looking for someone who is highly knowledgeble with MySQL to help figure out a problem that i've been having ever since i obtained MySQL.
Every time i run though the configurator, it gets to 'Applying Security Settings' and fails with the error code:
"(1045) Access Denied to root@localhost (using password: YES)"
For the life of me, i cannot figure out why... I've tried removing all trace of MySQL and reinstalling, only to give the same error. No firewall is running on the system, and port (3306) has been triggered, ranged and forwarded to the local ip.
According to Google searches, i'm told to use the command:
"GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';"
However no where does it say how to execute that command. I've tried executing it through mysql.exe, and it just throws the default help file back at me, and though mysqladmin.exe, it says "Unknown Command: GRANT".
I'm at a loss here, can anyone please help?
