This just isnt happening lol
 

I have followed the readme all the way to the point were i open mysql.exe and type

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



i hit enter and this happens >

ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '@localhost' <using password: NO>

Just thought i would mention - My password isnt no :)

All help appreciated

Bump
 

SOrry had to bump it , wanting to get this problem resolved

The Solution
 

when you run mysql make sure that you are under the user named root...

c:\mysql\bin>mysql -u root


then you can grant access and do whatever you want without an access denied error....

whaaa???????
 

how do you run the root thing i tried to type what you wrote in my ms-dos prompt and i get 'Bad command or file name' what is happeing am i doing someting wrong?

try at the prompt:

mysql.exe -u root mysql
