Ok, I saw two of your emails. Your problem is that you are not enough patiently to look into and to well understand the docs. 1. if you wanna change password: if you don't have already one: mysqladmin -u root password new_password if you already have one: mysqladmin -u root -p password new_password 2. the problem with 'mysql.sock' is because you need to chown or chgrp the mysql data directory to the user of the mysqld server ( = mysql , if you compiled it with the option --with-mysqld-user=mysql). You need to do something like this: chgrp -R mysql your_mysql_data_dir hope it helps :) Daniel BI -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
