[Soldev]Problem start server files with password mysql

[Wizatek]

as long as the server doesnt have a webserver i dont think its bad to use no password for the localhost connection.

 

Lastchaos is using a mysql library that only supports old passwords.

So u would have to enable the old passwords in /etc/my.cnf add the line old_passwords=1

and then restart mysql.

 

then u need to update the password for that user with a old password like this

UPDATE mysql.user SET password = OLD_PASSWORD(password comes here) WHERE user = root AND host = localhost

 

Now u can use the password
