Hello,

New user to Mysql 5.5. I did the complete install, and I entered a username, and password for this service. The install went smooth, but when I try and start working on the command line, I get the following error? There is no readme inside the install folder? Can anyone give me some advice?

C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin>mysql -u admin -p

Enter password: *****

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Maybe because the default super-user is "root" not "admin" ?
