The reason why I have suggested that was I got the same exact error when connecting to mysql. I have mysql running and in a root console I type: # mysql ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) jmd0 # The simple fix for this was # mysql -p and then enter the password when it asks. I know the create_bacula_database scripts pass the command line args to the database so just by adding -p and nothing else to the command line this should work. Did yoy try that? I see above that you passed an hpreader along with the -p probably is the problem because mysql treates this as the name of the database. # mysql -p hpreader Enter password: ERROR 1049 (42000): Unknown database 'hpreader' jmd0 # Also did you verify that mysql was running when you tried that?
