Title: Access Denied (mySQL help)
Post by: Isaac on July 08, 2005, 03:10:35 PM
I followed [Unknown]'s Guide to Installing PHP and mySQL (http://www.unknownbrackets.com/tutorials/basic-server) and got down to where I need to test mySQL.  Well, i copied that text to a file, did what it said, and I get this error:
QuoteAccess denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Can anyone tell me what went wrong?  Thanks!

Wrong password? You did change this : SET PASSWORD = OLD_PASSWORD('your password goes here');

Yes, I did that and it said:
QuoteQuery OK, 0 Rows affected (0.03 sec)
