MySQL Error #1405 or #2001 --- NEED HELP PLSSS

I followed all the intructions to make my own EQEmu server. I then ran the wold.exe file and it reported my MySQl server rejected the username and password. First off the only place I remember entering this info in was the db.ini file in my c:\eqemu folder and I know I gave the correct names with no extra spaces at the end. Could it be a port problem or something else I am totally missing or maybe I need to enter the username and password in an additional location? Please help I have the feeling I am close... :wink:

Have you used search for those errors? The answers are out there.

Yes I used the search for the errors but no luck finding solution for it. Any help?

Dident even bother reading the question, because this question gets asked every day, so let me guess: MySQL Error 2006, rejected user, using password:YES. If you had taken the time to read the sticky about this, you may have fixed it by now, but oh well. Read this then:

Go into MSDOS (cmd in run)

type the following:
cd 'yourmysqlbindirectory'
REPLACING yourmysqlbindirectory with what it really is (uasually C:\mysql\bin)

Then, in MSDOS, type this:

mysql -u root
Then type:
GRANT ALL ON *.* to 'yourmysqlusername'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'yourmysqlpassword' WITH GRANT OPTION;

And if this dosent work, play on EQLive or someone elses server. Or try reading the sticky on the 2006 error, or goto www.mysql.com and ask it there, because im sure everyone at EQEMu is getting tired of this question being asked (and answered) every day.

Sorry.... my error was a different number that mysql gave me so thats why I didn't find it... I'll try what you have here tho. thanx
