MySQL problem...
 

Ok, now here is my problem... I downloaded an made a username and a password for my SQL a long time ago, when my EQEMU server was active... Then, i had family issues so i had to take the server down...

Now im trying to put it back up... i deleted MySQL and all of the nessessary things that i needed for the server to run.

Now, in trying to get the server back up, i downloaded mySQL and Dwanes worlddata and all of that.

Were it says open winmysqladmin.exe, instead of asking for a username and password... it just opens and closes as if i ALREADY have a username and password... and it used to old username and password when its running... BUT I DELETED MY SQL LIKE 5 MONTHS AGO. how is it recodnizeing my username and password?

anyway.. your probubly going to say just use the useername and pass that it gives me, but no, when i open world.exe and boot5zones.bat it says that the myaql name and pass is invalid... were do i get a copy of myaql that does not already have my username and pass on it!

This is driveing me crazy! HELP/.

Thanks.

In the Mysql prog that opens up there should be a tab that says My.ini at the bottom of that tap you should see text in that text there should be
To fix that all you have to do is change the username and password ect

But next time use search lol

*bonks* thanks man.

sorry for the double post but when i do the GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* to '%'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '%'; after seting up the DB i egt a 1045 access denied for user error...

whats wrong?

I get the same thing i am only a Newbie to the fourms Do some digging and i am sure you will find the answer :D
If you don't repost your prob

the % wildcard does not work you have to suply a name

supply what kinda name? uhm... like my mysql and and pass? what?

from the server guide
change the test@localhost to your dbname@localhost and change the 'test' to 'yourpassword' you need the tick's there

thank you muchies!
