david_hon_chin_leng Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Dear Larry, I started learning MySQL through your book. To get started, I followed you instruction to set a password to the root using MyPhpAdmin. After I have entered the password, I updated the config.inc.php file to include the password. However, I am no longer able to access the root ever since. The error message is 1045, Access denied for user root@local host (using password:YES). I researched the web for password reset but the techniques (MySQLD) could not resolve my problem. Could you advise what I can do. Thank you so much.

Larry Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Could you clarify what exact steps you took and where? Did you also remember to reload the permissions after making the change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
