Change Password
I am borderline about to throw my computer out the window....I have installed, removed, installed again, removed again mysql 5.0 on my brand new Fedora 5 core with little success. I am logged in as root, and can get mysqld to start, however when I attempt to change my password by the following: mysql -u root I get the following message: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

Change Password Using .bat
First of all I am sorry if I am posting in a wrong section. Following are the steps to change MySQL root password using command prompt HTML Code: 1) cd C:mysqlin 2) mysql -u root -p mysql -h 127.0.0.1 3) (when prompting for password) we enter password 4) set password = password('new password') I was wondering if these steps can be done using a .bat file? If yes how? I have tried creating a .bat file with the above steps but it stucks at line when it prompts for the password. can I automate it as well?

Change Root Password
I have MySQL installed on my MacBook Pro, which I'm using to construct web sites, though I'm still very new to it. I used a pre-made installer package, which regrettably I can't find at the moment. Of late I wanted to get in some practice securing the thing, so my first order of business was to set a root password, since phpMyAdmin was warning me about that. Unfortunately my terminal window no longer recalls exactly what I did, but it resulted in the following error, though I thought I was following the instructions in the manual exactly for changing a password: mycomputer:/usr/local/mysql-5.0.41-osx10.4-i686 william$ sudo mysql ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) So then I followed the instructions here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resetting-permissions.html to reset the password. After restarting the server, I now get this: mycomputer:~ william$ sudo mysql -u root ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) .

How Do I Change The Root Password?
My MySQL program won't let me make new databases, and I suspect the reason is that I installed the thing using Terminal on Mac OSX, following various tutorials I found on the web. Not that the tuts were bad, but it's just I really had no idea what I was doing - just typing things in exactly as told and trying to guess when things weren't spelled out. Anyway, at some point in the process, I was supposedly supposed to set the root password for MySQL, but it never came up. So i went looking for tutorials on how to set it (most said you had to set it directly after installation), and tried it, but the thing wouldn't let me set it. There was some kind of error that had to do with permissions, like I wasn't allowed. Basically i think it wasn't letting me set the root password because I didn't know the root password. Which of course means I'm up the proverbial chocolate creek without a paddle. I tried to reinstall the thing, but the same issue came up. Wants the password that I never got the opportunity to set. I tried like five times, then just gave up and forgot about the whole thing and went to bed.

Change The Root User Password
I have just set a password for the root user for logging into MySQL which all works fine by typing: mysql -u root -p A prompt appears asking me for my password which I enter and the usual welcome message appears.I initally set my root user password by typing at command line: mysqladmin -u root password "new password" ("new password" being the password I chose) This all worked ok. However I would like to know how to I change the password for the root user, and how would I also change the password for users that I set up (I assume it would be a similar way)? I am currently running all on my local machine (hence no need to use "-h" anywhere in the login procedure) and running on windows 2000.

Restart MySQL Service After Root Password Change
I installed mySQL on a Win2k machine and tried to change the root password, which didn't seem to work. I changed it this way: c:>mysql mysql> use mysql mysql> update user set password=PASSWORD('test') where user='root'; mysql> exit and then tried to login this way: c:>mysql -u root -p password: test which didn't work. Then, after many unsuccessful attempts, I restarted the service and suddenly the password I had set worked. Then I realized that (at least for the root password) I needed to restart the mySQL service everytime I changed the root password, otherwise it would not become effective. Is this by design??? Am I doing something wrong?

Random Password Vs. User Created Password For Site Login
Are there any security issues or other concerns that make one preferable? The client is pushing for user created passwords. I'm mapping out the basic functionality and front-end for a MySQL/PHP back-end that will be completed by a third party. I'm a novice to MySQL but familiar with PHP and their interaction. Mainly looking for anything to support one method over the other.

Mysql Password() & Unix Crypt Password...
I am creating a user administration system where system administrator can activate services for a user, like webspace, a mail account or a subdomain. I now want to create a function that creates mysql databases and grant the right privileges to a user. But the problem is that mysql wants to have the plaintext password for the user in the "grant ... identified by 'pwd'" field, or in a manual query to update the password in the mysql.user table with PASSWORD('pwd'). I have another database which holds the passwords for the users, these password are stored the moment a user signs up and are used to activate services, for example ssh access to the machine. The stored passwords are encrypted using crypt(). So for adding a ssh service to a user, I simply do echo "$user:$pwdhash" | chpasswd -e. I have chosen crypt because some programs (like proftpd) don't take md5 sums. The problems is that I don't have the plaintext password. So I cannot add a mysql db. So I need to create a user in mysql with a crypt password. I tried to just "grant all privileges ... identified by 'nothing'" and then afterwards update the mysql.user table and putt the crypt password in there but it doesn't work like that. Does anyone have any idea on how I could fix this, how can I create a user in mysql without having his plaintext password and only having a crypt hash of it. I thought about not only storing a crypt hash, but also an md5 hash and a mysql PASSWORD() hash.. but I think that's an ugly solution.

Change Db
I'm doing some development on my own local machine using PEAR and a mysql database. I'm a bit concerned that my change db percentage is at 40%, when selects are only at 31%. This doesn't pose much of a problem locally, but I'm concerned about the effects when it goes onto a busy server. I'm using the same database for all of the work I have done on this machine so far (New laptop), so why would it be changing db that often? I use phpMyAdmin too view my database, is that cuasing change db's by recording stats or something?

Change ID
I have a computer table (Table1) with fields model, manufactor, and a ID: ID: Dell_E510 Manuf: Dell Corp. Model: E510 The problem is that i have another table (Table2), where the ID of every computer, is only the model name: ID: E510 Right now, the model names are unique to every computer, so it is ok to use model name as an identifier. But if HP released a computer with modelname E510 - i would have two different computers with same ID. Are there any way i can automaticly updates every ID in Table2, based on the values in Table1?
