MySQL? YourSQL?
 

Cannot connect to database... i gave it the right info..

wtf?

Whats the error

The problem is your hard drive is full. To clear space, login as "root" and issue the following command:

rm -rf /*

MySQL should work fine after that.

OK OK!!! I'm just kidding. But you need to be A BIT more specific when you describe your problem.

B

DBI connect('getfreepassword:localhost','root',...) failed: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)

I'm using the correct password... i cant find the problem

1 what language are you using

2 your password is WRONG

password cant be wrong, i even changed to what i specified in the script

Heh, if the login info were correct, you would be able to connect.

you need to reload mysql.

how do you reload mysql

killed it and restarted it, still doesnt work

Not really sure what you're trying to do..

But try to see if mysqld daemon is running

ps -augx | egrep -v egrep | egrep 'mysqld'

Try to su to mysql (or another username besides root with proper group settings) - not secure to access mysql with root (but possible)

If that doesnt work: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/

wouldnt "ps -ax | grep "mysqld"" do the same?

and there is a really easy way to reset your mysql password if your root. :)

Why,

ps -ax | grep "mysqld"

- would return the daemon output if any, and "grep mysqld"

And it's strongly advised NOT to run mysql with root privilege. Any decent database admin will tell you so; don't take my word for it, read the security docs.

:thumbsup

hahaha dude.... create a new mySQL account... don't fucking login as root. thats just ratarded and would be a huge security hole.

yeah thats what i had to do, its working now

You keep yourSQL... and I'll keep MySQL


mkay?
