Hi guys, I have the follwing problem or courious thing on my server. I was installing fedoracore 5 on my Server and during the ispconfig process (setting a mysql oasswrod) I got these messages: command: mysqladmin -u root password <mypassword> Message: mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)' I already figured out that I already set a password. After that I was able to change the password with this command: mysqladmin -u root -p<mypassw> password <mynewpassw> So I know my password. Here is the thing. I am also using Webmin for configurating my server and there I can log to the mysql database with my password. But when I am typing in my terminal: mysqladmin -u root password <mypassword> I get the same Message as above. Does anybody know what's going on here? THX for your Help Gomanza
by the way change password for openssl By the way does somebody know how to change the openssl password I used on thats to easy THX
fixed I reinstalled the mysqladmin mess and then I typed mysqladmin -h localhost -u root -p password the I got asked to type the password cu
Hi Gomanza, Not sure if this will work but try just using this command at the command line: mysql -u root password -h localhost -p<yourpassword> this works for me I believe it will work for you!
