Re: MySQL + PWS Problems

Hi Start a DOS session and cd to the location of the mysql\bin directory; (maybe c:\mysql\bin?) type in: mysqld exit This will start mysql and exit from the DOS window You can access mysql as user ODBC or as root each one with no password If you want to set up users, do the above but type mysql -u root instead to login as root. Then USE mysql; to get the mysql database, and do a GRANT SQL statement. You can also do the database access through Winmysql or one of the other Windows MYSQL GUI's HTH Chris wrote: > > Whenever I try to connect with ANY Mysql code on my cpu, I get an error saying it can't > connect.
