0.3.7 Totally screwed with me

[enigma78]

I don't know what is different. I set up everything exactly the same as I did in 0.3.6 ( I had that running smooth as anything) now when I try to start up world.exe after booting minilogin.exe it gives me this error (yes I have mysqladmin.exe running at the time I try to boot it up)

Failed to connect to database: Error: Access denied for user: 'enigma@localhost' (using password: YES)
Eqemu 0.3.7 F1

It is all related to eqemu not talking to mysql

Check your db.ini again, username/pass and DB name
And make sure mysql is running

ya gotta grant yourself all privs or some stuff: Copied directly out of the readme :P...

If you receive a message saying Access Denied blahblah@localhost blah blah error. Try running Winmysqladmin.exe in the background.
If that does not work reboot your machine

And if that does not help. Open mysql.exe ( found in c:\mysql\bin )
Type in: GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* to '%'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '%'; (press enter)
Close out of mysql.exe

I'd vote for putting this one in the FAQ/readme if it's not there already. I don't remember seeing it when I was having the problem and it's not exactly intuitive.

Readme.html, part 2, sub part 3, step 4 :) its been there for a while now. Thats probably where dudeman got it from because its a direct quote =P

I already did that guys, thinking that was the problem also but it did not work :(
