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?

I try running it on my local server through the MySQL Control Center, and it says "Read Only". I don't have to enter password for root@localhost to login to the Control Center.

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.

Multiple Form Value
I am playing around with an address book mysql database I have put together but am having problems conceptualizing and putting down the search element. I want users to be able to search on more than one field (fields aren't all in 1 table, they're spread out over 5/6 tables) and match all or partially. My brain goes round and round when trying to get a feel for this and keeping the code light and clean. Has anyone had any experience with this and can point me in a useful direction? I have thought about having preset queries that users could select and then find the info they wanted, but it wouldn't allow users to select fields they wanted to search at will, it would be they would have to select a built-in query to run...it's not a bad system, but not flexible, very dependant on me writing the queries.

Repopulating A Form
Making a form where a patient will fill out check boxes and after submission would like to present their submitted form back if they choose the option and be able to edit the data entered. What I am wanting to do is repopulate the form, but the checkboxes will need a database with this information that will then go to a php script and take the values entered into the various checkboxes and check those values from the database that were entered origionally. So lets say the database haspid - int(5) auto_increment primary keypatient_first - varchar(30) first namepatient_last - varchar(50) last namearthritis - bool or what?copd - bool or what?tin ear -bool or what?What would be the best to check against to repopulate does a true false make sense or should it either be NULL or the actual condition (just kidding about the tin ear)?

First Normal Form, Etc.
i am trying to set up a database, and the book I am following seems to stress the proper organization of the database. I am pretty much trying to create a gallery. With a certain number of users, who can create separate albums, and store cards in them. The way I see i the database breaks down into 3 tables, I have a users table (with an auto incrementing "user id" (primary key), email, password), a album table (with an album id number (primary key), album name, and a few other attributes specific to the table) and then a picture table (with a picture id (primary key), name of the picture, the image's path.) My issue is not so much with creating and accessing the databases as it is with the actual design. I fail to see how I link the databases, i.e. how do I keep track of the user, who may have 7 albums, and 500 pictures, without putting their "user_id" in the album table, and a album_id with the corresponding cards. If I do this, there seems to be redundancy which is not compliant with the normal forms (in particular the second)? For example, in my card table, there may be 500 card_ids for the same user number. Is this correct? I know this seems like it requires telling me how to design my whole database... I guess what I need is a more graphical display of how to break down the data to be entered into a database. Because words aren't really doing it.
