Thank you for explaining.

I did try mysqladmin --help. This gave me a list of commands and I understood what each did however the problem was I didn't understand why the error was occuring.

I get the impression you last comment was a little condesending, please remember all people where new to mysql at some point. I personally am having trouble with is as I am very much used to oracle and I am struggling to drop my old methods and embrace new one. I do read the help and man pages and the manual but sometimes things can be a little missleading, more so when you are used to something meaning 1 thing and you find out it means another with mysql.

Please bare with me if I am slow on the uptake as I have tried to explain I am struggling to get my head around the basics.

Thanks,

Matt.

try

./mysqladmin -u root -p create bathjobs

and FYI,

./mysqladmin --help

Thank you.

I have set the root password for the mysql install.

I have read the manual and want to make a new database. I ran mysql_install_db (see my other mail today) which seemed to do little, then did what the manual told me with

[mysqldba@jordan bin]$ ./mysqladmin create bathjobs ./mysqladmin: CREATE DATABASE failed; error: 'Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'bathjobs'' [mysqldba@jordan bin]$

why is this happening ? I was expecting to get a blank shcema which I could create tables, grants etc.

Thanks,
