[Mysql Root Password]

I have gone through all the appendix and followed the direction, but I cannot get MySQL Client to let me set the root password. I enter

 

SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('PASSWORD');

 

ERROR 1044 access denied to user  ' '@'localhost'  to database 'mysql'

 

Can you point me in the right direction.

The  include directory worked. I retrospect it makes sense since the include statement is a path statement. The text hints and that but does not describe it to well. Taking out the include alltogether did not seem to work, but I want to work with a little more.

 

Thanks

Using XAMPP all the files are in the htdocs file. The code for index.php:

 

<?php # Script 3.4 - index.php
$page_title = 'Welcome to this site!';
include ('includes/header.inc.html');

?>

 

<h1>Content Header</h1>

  <p>This is where the page-specific content goes. This section, and the
  conresponding header, will change from one page to the next.</p>

  <p>Volutpat at various sed sollicitudin et, arcu. Vivamus viverra. Nullam turpis.

<?php
 include ('includes/footer.inc.html');

?>

 

The message indicates it cannot find header.html or footer.html. I have the same problem with the calculator program.
