I Can Connect With Db Password Or Blank Password
I have a password setup for root (% and localhost) in Mysql 5.0.26, I can connect ok no problem. I can also connect with blank password! I know it is checking the password cuz it fails if it's wrong. I'm sure I have only one account as well (tried to delete, recreate, etc... no change) select * from user where user='root'; | localhost | root | *F3AD8B3C44772C17F66767F29D948D9C255BD824 | Y ... | % | root | *F3AD8B3C44772C17F66767F29D948D9C255BD824 | Y ... Is there an option to accept blank password!? I have this problem only for root user; Other accounts are fine.

Warning: Mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access Denied For User 'debscrof'@'localhost' (using Password: NO)
Have MySQL on a VPS running CPanel MySQL v4.1.22-standard Can access MySql fine through CPanel, phpMyAdmin etc all work fine, creating databases, deleting databases, adding users etc However, when I try to use MySql from a website, it fails I created a user "test1" (which then got the username "debscrof_test1" from CPanel), a password for the user "test2", and then added the user to a new database "testdb" with all priviliges Then a simple script to connect to the database (as I am trying to locate the source of the errors), as per below: <?php $dbhost = "localhost"; $dbuser = "debscrof_test1"; $dbpass = "test2"; $conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die ('Error connecting to mysql'); $dbname = 'debscrof_testdb'; mysql_select_db($dbname); ?> Have tried with " and ' around the values, with 127.0.0.1 as the host... still with the same error message: Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'debscrof'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home/debscrof/public_html/testdb.php on line 6 Error connecting to mysql ...any suggestions why I cannot connect?

Cannot Connect With Root Password
I've set my root password (or at least I think I did!), but am unable to connect to localhost with it. Now when I try to connect using root and that password - i receive a 'command not found' error.I'm totally perplexed. This is a new installation and I 'thought' I followed the instructions - but apparently not. Can I remove this installation (and how would I do that?) and try to install again?

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.

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.

Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/home/data/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)
I just installed mysql on linux. If I open a terminal, su to root, then type "mysql", I am able to connect to the server and run my queries. If I exit out of su so that I am my own id (baisley) and type "mysql", I get this error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/home/data/mysql/mysql.sock' (13) Any idea why? mysql.sock has full permissions (read/write/execute), so it should be accessable by user baisley. If I am baisley and I run "mysql -u mysql" (as mysql is the user that the RPM set up), it will connect. What I would like to be able to do is run this without having to be user mysql all the time. How do I go about setting that up, or is it better to run all my queries/make tables as 1 user?

Got Locked Out Of Mysql. Won't Take My Password

Mysql Service And Root Password (-w W)
I have a few qeustions for some linux/mysql pros in here. Background: I've just built MySQL on Mandrake Linux 9.1 from source. I can get the mysql service running my: shell> /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql & but I don't know how to keep it running, or how to make it start at every bootup. How do I do that? Also, I've made an alias to mysql: alias=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql but it won't span sessions, I think I need to export it, but I'm not sure how to. Also, via mysqladmin I set the root password to "password" which I don't want to keep :) how do I got about changeing it now? I know I probably should have installed via RPM, but I'm wanting to learn as much as I can about all of this.

Mysql.user.password In Session

Or can we store the $Link in a session? or somehow have it remember that the user is connected?as if I sha1() the password how do I get it back into a format that mysql recognizes?What is the best way of doing this?

MySQL Password Hash Location
I'm running MySQL v.4.0 and and on my webserver and I have PHP Nuke installed. For the PHP Nuke system to run, it requires the db username and the db password. However, I can't use the text version of my db password, because my password actually gets hashed, and that's what is required by PHP Nuke. When I first installed the Nuke, I was able to locate my password hash, but it's been so long that I actually have no clue as to where I was able to locate it. I would change the database user password back to what it was...if only I could remember what it was. So, reverting it back to it's previous password doesn't look like it's going to be an option. So, basically...all I need is to find out where in the heck I can locate the hash for my db user password

Setting Password For MySQL From WAMP?
A few months back I installed WAMP (one big installation of Apache, MySQL and PHP for Windows). The last week I'm busy with Portal development. As a result I'm trying to install Jetspeed-2. The installer of Jetspeed asked what Database I would like to use. As I installed WAMP I thought it wiser to stick to MySQL. When I started phpMyAdmin I saw the following message: "Your configuration file contains settings (root with no password) that correspond to the default MySQL privileged account." As it is some time since I installed WAMP I cannot remember what I need to do. I searched the install directory and found that the word password is contained in several .ini files (my-huge.ini, my-innodb-heavy-4G.ini, my-large.ini, my-medium.inim and my-small.ini, but not in my.ini). The format of the line is: #password= your_password I take it I need to remove the # at the start of the line, replace 'your_password' with a password of my choosing? But in what ini file? How does WAMP know what ini file to choose? In the same directory as the ini files I see a wampserver.conf file. In it there is an entry: $mysqlConf['mysqlConfFile'] = 'my.ini'; Does this entry make WAMP to choose for my.ini? I plan to use the WAMP/MySQL installation purely for development purposes.
