Error: 1064 i think.. HELP!

[Daedra]

Hi all...

I'm trying to make my own server, but i dont got any idea how mysql works or anything, but when... well look for your self.




well the problem is, what should i write in :

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* to '%'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '%';

//Daedra

Your jpg is not showing up (for me), can you copy and paste your mysql command and the error message ?

[Daedra]

well i have already fixed the jpg.. minor url fail


//Daedra

You spelled PRIVILEGES wrong ?

[Daedra]

thats strange, on the guide i follow there stands :

<More lines will scroll by, you might wanta go make some food at this point ,as this will take 10min plus to finish, again ignore the beeping. Then type >

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* to '%'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '%';

After it finishs Type " Exit " . MySQL will close.

Well, my real problem is that : i dont know what to write, it does'nt seem right to write:


GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* to '%'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '%';

is it something like :

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *?* to 'Username/password'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'Username/password';

The guide says ...

PRIVILEGES

In your screenshot you spelled it


PRIVILIGES



i.e. should be E, not I, in position 7

there is a whole lot of threads answering this question, go to search and put in your error number and you will be surprised at how many diferent fixxes for this there is, some work for 1 person not for others others work for other people ect. just keep trying the fixes till you find the one that works for you.

DOH!


is that the problem?

I think it is just the spelling Daedra, but I could be wrong

[Daedra]

hmm well i still keep getting the same error

*shrug* ... it works for me :(

EDIT: Copy and paste this

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* to '%'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '%';

into mysql and see if that works

[Daedra]

well there's a good news, and a bad...


The good first : it got pass the error:1064,

The bad : error-1045, something about i dont got a password?


where should i write the pass???

Where do you get the 1045, starting world.exe, or using mysql.exe ?

[Daedra]

mysql.exe
