Username/Password
I am practising both PHP and MySQL programming on my desktop with Windows 98SE / PWS 4 Web Server. Using PHP script to connect to MySQL server, when I define DB_USER and DB_PASSWORD with my real user name and real password, I get the following error message: Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server. Consider upgrading MySQL client in D:Inetpubwwwrootphpmysql_scripts6mysql_connect.inc on line 20 The category could not be added! To get these to work, I had to change DB_USER name to "root" and DB_PASSWORD to blank.

Resetting Username And Password
I recently downloaded WAMPServer 2.0. I have forgotten what my username is. My password is also just blank How do I reset my root username and password for MySQL? I have tried it on the command line (Windows XP) and it didn't work. I have no idea where such information would even be stored on my local WAMP server. I tried creating a php file, mysql_init.php, that would connect to my database, but when I open my browser and go to localhost/mysql_init.php. It says: Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'sitename'

Indexing Username And Password Columns
I want to make sure that each username is unique. I would like, also, to ensure that each pwd is unique. Is this overkill/needless? The ciode I have entered so far makes the username unique. Should I make a joint index for both username and pwd or should I make two unique indexes? ALTER TABLE tbl_Login ADD UNIQUE INDEX username_ix ( user_name ); should I do this? ALTER TABLE tbl_Login ADD UNIQUE INDEX username_and_pwd_ix ( user_name, password ); or ALTER TABLE tbl_Login ADD UNIQUE INDEX username_ix ( user_name ); ADD UNIQUE INDEX pwd_ix ( password ); I need to be able to show a friendly error if a duplicate entry is atmysqlted. SO maybe you will suggest I just query the db before inserting?

Data Type For Username, Password & Zip Code Etc.
I'm creating a database table that will contain user name and contact information. I have question about what is the correct data type to use for each field. I've read mysql handbook, but what it doesn't explain is how number of characters works with numeric types. Its obvious that char(2) is a two chacter string but what is TINYINT(3) and what effect would signed or unsigned have on it? What woud the result be of a SMALLINT(2)UNSIGNED ? Would it only accept values from 0 to 99 ? For example, if I want a field to store a user's zipcode what datatype should i use and should i specify the number of characters? Since, zipcode is five digit would SMALLINT[(M)] Unsigned [0 to 65,535] not work because if a zip was over 65535 it wouldn't work. Code:

I installed a nuke platinum 7.0.6 and created a new database in phpmyadmin. Before that I had made a backup file of my former database also a nuke platinum 7.0.6. (I have MySql) After the database was created I inserted the former backup database as it was with all the members and everything. I did that in query and then imported the backup file. Everything works fine...except when new users registers the username is not showing. In the Users info the latest member registered shows a blank(nothing) When I go to active users in the Admin panel your account admin it shows the uid but not username? What is wrong? And what do I have to do to meke all the new registered members username shows?

Can I Set Database User Password When No Root Pw Is Set
I have installed PHPBB MediaWiki and SugarCRM on Ubuntu Server LAMP. I initially tried to set the root password on install and then could not log back in. After reinstall this is what I did for a new non root user. root@invest:~# mysql -V mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.38, for pc-linux-gnu (i486) using readline 5.2 grant CREATE,INSERT,DELETE,UPDATE,SELECT on pauldb.* to paul@localhost; set password for paul = password('mysecretpassword'); flush privileges; exit; Then when i go to login with this user I can't. I have not set a password for root because the same thing happened when I tried to set root pw immediately after install of the database. This time I am trying to work out the access issue with a new user i have created. This way I still have access since and I won't have to reinstall the db.

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.

1 Username Databases?
Many ISP:s offer web-service with MySQL - with 1 user / 1 database. Have I understood right that this means there is that 1 read/write user only, and no chance to make read-only username, so only chance is to put username/password with write-rights into scripts?

Change Username
I have installed MySQL 4.1 (after much trouble with firewall, password format, etc!!) but I would like to know if I can change the MySQL username on our local MySQL server from 'root' to something else. I know that password is changeable. I like to test my scripts on my localhost before uploading them to the server. But the problem is that the MySQL username on our webhotel is not 'root' therefore I always have to go into our configuration files before uploading and change the username. This is a pain.

Incorrect Username
I added a new user to the mysql database by means of SQLyog. I specified test as "New Username", and wxpfvdb01.fvdb.local (an existing host on my network) as "New Host". I left the password blank, and selected all privileges for this new user. When i tried to connect as this new user, i got the following erros message : access denied for user: 'test@WXPFVDB01' (Using password: YES). The Full Computer Name of my system is: wxpfvdb01.fvdb.local, and this name is dynamically registered in my DNS Server (both forward and reverse zone). I get the same error message when trying to connect with other programs (mysqlc, mysql qdministrator, It is clear that for some reason the client programs put the netbios name of my computer after the @.

MySQL Username
I downloaded an application that uses MySQL, PHP and IIS. What i did, I just copy the PHP files in c:inetpubwwwroot and run http://localhost/newweb/install.php. During installation, it asks for MySQL username which i dont know because during installation of MySQL 5.0 , I was not asked to enter username, only password for the root. I tried typing root for MySql username but states that "Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client". What username will i enter? It says to try FTP username account which i also dont know.

Username On Install
The *** thing wont let me in, so secretive are these clever sprites! Installing mysql is simple enough (latest version), apache and php work together happily - but not mysql. My problem seems to be the username, as the basedir (default) and the datadir (my own within My Documents) should be OK in the my.ini file. But nowhere did it ask for a username. When I try to connect it says 'No way, go away root@localhost' and whatever I try in place of 'root' - it still wont play. Where/when can I choose the username to force it, screaming, to let me connect to it (Win XP, mysql-essential-4.1.11)
