Sean,

> if i type >mysql -u root -p
i get this error : ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)

When do you get the error in this situation? Is it immediately after entering the command, or when you are prompted for a root password.

If you have reinstalled mysql then it is possible that the root password has been re-set. Try:

shell >mysql -u root -p

and then just hit Return when you are prompted for a password

What happens?

Nick
