Cannot seem to use my mysql password, keep getting the error
"Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)"
So I tried checking my password using mysql -u root -p and I get the same error as above. I've tried accessing mysql with skip grant tables disabling the need for a password so I could reset my root password. After going through the necessary steps I still get the error above when typing my password in for mysql.
I set up a servber on my local machine, & also PHp - Both working fine.I'm trying to load up MYSQL i have installed it, & *can* start/stop the server. however if I do anything else with it, I get this error :-
Quote:
root@gordon-desktop:~# sudo mysqladmin -u root -h localhost password MYPASSWORD mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'
Query :-
1) How do I know MYSQL is actually active ? (apart from the message it says that its statrted (or stopped).
2) Is there a way to
a) Find out the usernames that are recorded on the MYSQL server ? b) set / RESET the 'root' username (I know MYSQL root user is different to PC root user) c) anything else I can do on the PHP / website code to see if MYSQL is working
(as yet, no tables / databases etc have been set up - as I can't get past this error message - I get the same error when setting up a database.)
Ps I did allow my usermname (when logged in to ubuntu) to edit / create files in the /usr/www/ directory (but it is still OWNED by 'root' - that directory)
I am not sure if this is the correct forum to post this as I have usually been able to find the answers from other peoples threads.The error I receive is below.(changed "at" as can't post links)"#1045 - Access denied for user 'root' at 'localhost' (using password: NO)" Not entirely sure what has happened here. I have had this server running for a long time and today it seems to have spat it's dummy out!I have checked the config.inc.php and the controluser and controlpass are entered correctly so the error saying a password is not being usPHP Code:Thisis needed for cookie based authentication to encrypt password incookie
I have a new CentOS server install. I am trying to connect from a windows xp box using putty ssh. I can get as far as putting in the password for root user and then it tells me access denied.
I am pulling my hair out once again after trying for over 15 months off and on to get a tv tuner working under linux. I have just received my new tuner card which I thought was supposed to be easy to run, a HVR-950Q, no luck yet. But first I am trying to use something called mysql (new to me), for mythtv and [I] keep getting
# mysqladmin -u root password ma mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
for some reason root lost grant privileges and I can't get it back. The user got grant_priv = 'Y' in the usertable. I've tried to reset all the priviliges to the user by killing MySQL process and started up again without grant options with no luck. I've also tried lots of other things but can't seem to get it work. Here is what I get: Quote:
[root@xxxxxxxxx mysqldba]# mysql -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or g. Your MySQL connection id is 2 Server version: 5.0.77 Source distribution
I need to get an old MySQL Client(4.1)to connect to an even older MySQL Server (3.23).The goal is to do a Java/JDBC connect to the old Linux/MySQL 3.23 database, in order to update text information for a Lucene search (which will also run on linuxdev2). The problem is that I can't connect to the Linux/MySQL 3.23 server from a remote Linux/MySql 4.1 client. I can't connect from JDBC; I can't connect from "mysql":
Code:
LOCAL (intranet): mysql -uSOMEUSER -pSOMEPASSWORD mysql => OK REMOTE (from linuxdev2): mysql -uSOMEUSER -pSOMEPASSWORD -hintranet mysql => FAILS: ERROR 1045 (00000): Access denied for user: 'SOMEUSER@linuxdev2' (Using password: YES)
I have got a RHEL 5.6 server configured to authenticate via a Windows 2008 domain controller via LDAPS.Everything is working fine, except from the following: When I create a new user in Active directory and check the option "user must change password at next logon", the new user cannot logon and gets an "access denied" message. In /var/log/secure, I find the following:
Mar 1 14:43:21 cpssvn10 sshd[5363]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=192.168.3.12 user=testuser2 Mar 1 14:43:21 cpssvn10 sshd[5363]: pam_ldap: error trying to bind as user "CN=CPSS Testuser 2,OU=IBM,DC=cpss,DC=smarterplatform,DC=com" (Invalid credentials) Mar 1 14:43:23 cpssvn10 sshd[5363]: Failed password for testuser2 from 192.168.3.12 port 4583 ssh2
As soon as I uncheck the "user must change ..." option, the user can log on without problems. Also password change via the passwd command works.
There is a simple select query in a.php. If i run directly a.php, there is no problem but if i call a.php from b.html with ajax i have Access denied for user 'www-data'@'localhost' (using password: NO)error.

I have the right password in all the mysql config files and tried to reset the password in the sql database with no luck. I granted perms to all and its still giving me the error.
I'm having a hard time to access MySQL from the local or remote shell. If I try to access MySQL, using mysql -u root -pxxxx I get the error 1045 Access denied...
MySQL is running and I can access it, using phpmyadmin.
There must be something blocking shell access. Can anybody confirm and tell me how to check/configure for shell access? I'm using ca preconfigured CenOS from PBX in a flash and it seems they did some security settings - but I can't find any further information. I know I should probably post there, but the Mods didn't activate my account yet. And you know how it is if you try to figure something out. You won't stop.

I followed this tutorial for setting up my server. Whatever I type into mysql or mysqladmin all I get back is Quote:ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
I have been following this guide to install Apache, PHP & mysql - [URL]. When I get up to the step 'mysql -u root' I get given this error: Code: tom@tom-laptop:~$ mysql -u root ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) How do I overcome this?
I'm trying to get a password in a bash script for mysql user creation. But sometimes a get a non-alphanumeric character(s) in the password, and mysql failes with that. I tryed with apg -EO0Il1`~!@#$%^&*()_+-=[];./{}|:"'<>? but failed. I tryed with sed 's/[^a-zA-Z2-9]//g' , but at that moment the minimum password lenght failed. I'm also fine when there is a better alternative then apg.
I keep receiving the error message in the title above whenry to enterebmin.abc.com/webmin. I'm on Ubuntu 9.10. Other errors I'll receive are "You do not have access to any Webmin modules". Wondering if anyone knew what settings our permissions on files I could change to avoid these error
This is my first post, I hope I'm the the right place. I installed mysql mysql-server php-mysql perl-DBD-mysql libdbi-dbd-mysql via "yum install -y" on a server running CentOS 5.3 X86_64 The install completes successful with no errors, but once I start mysqld via "chkconfig --level 35 mysqld on" ; "service mysqld start" There are no errors in /var/log/mysqld.log netstat shows mysqld listening on 3306 and localhost is in /etc/hosts
I've tried every manual there is for creating new MySQL users ... but without success. I keep getting
Code: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'test'@'localhost' (using password: YES) even though I just created it with all privileges ... WITH a password that I DO remember .
Fortunately I still have access via the MySQL root user (so I try not to disturb that user, because I have had computers with THAT account not accessible as well - even WITH resetting the password via skip-grant-tables).
I did something silly and changed my root user access for mysql access to Any from localhost using webmin. I get an access dented when i try to open up the mysql editing page on webmin. Can any of you tell me if there is a way to change it back to hosts=localhost I am using webmin 1.5.30 on Centos 5.5. I am hoping I can change it by command line or if I can access the config files and change it that way?
After updating my system yesterday my laptop will no longer connect to my wifi connection, in fact the network manager doesn't appear on the screen. I cant access super user even with the correct password. Some programs fail to load e.g. hardware drivers.I'm online now using my ethernet cable. I cant update grub due to errors in etc/grub.d/README.I'm logged in as root now instead of my own user account.
So I'm attempting to get my system to not require the root password while still requiring some form of authentication. My current issue is getting yast2 and its components to ask for the user's password and not the root's.
Is there a way to have these tools ask for user's password instead of root's?
