Yes I can connect using the mysql command line tool. No, the gnucash db has not been created.
But I cannot use the mysqlworkbench shell. It complains about a missing connector (python?) Also, gnc get the "bad data" error even if I try to "save as" with a bad password, no password, or no user id. So it doesn't look like it is really hitting the db at all.
