[HOWTO] - Install Webmin on 10.1/10.0

[uoba]

but I think I messed up somewhere in the terminal when using:

mysqladmin password new-password

I keep getting this:

[localhost:/etc/httpd] co% mysqladmin refresh
./bin/mysqladmin: refresh failed; error: 'Access denied for user: '@localhost' (Using password: NO)'

...and simple commands like this:

[localhost:/] co% mysql status
ERROR 1044: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'status'

...and in root:

[localhost:/] root# mysql status
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)



Sorry about the multiple threads, but I am new to this, and like what I see, a true convert!

[localhost:/] root# mysql status
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)


that tells me that you aren't using a password for the main SQL account. If there is one set you need to use that instead of something blank or nothin will work.
