Change Mamp MYSQL password?

I use the normal command line and i get this message...help
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)'

I was struggleing with this too, the error is as follows:
/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password <NEWPASSWORD>
In the above I was replacing the password with my password, thats wrong, copy and paste the following into terminal exactly as is, change nothing:
/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password
now at the end, after the word "password" type your new password then press enter.
Now you will be prompted for the current password, type 'root' without the quotes.
You should be good to go!
My, and many others interpretation of the instructions within MAMP makes you think you replace 'password' with your current password, then replace <NEWPASSWORD> with the new one, wrong.
Hope this helps!!

  • Changing Root MySQL Password - Possible?

    Due to the departure of a former employee, we have need to change the root password for MySQL operating in OS X Apache on a Mac G4 tower. When we change the root password now for MySQL it seems to stop communicating with websites on the server which rely on it, even though each user database has its own unique user and password information. Are we hosed, or is it possible to change the root MySQL password in an environment where several websites on the server are already using databases within the MySQL set up?
    This is a great a valuable forum, I welcome any and all comments. TIA!

    It should be possible to change the root password. If you have problems accessing the database afterwards then it sounds like your applications aren't using the usernames and passwords that were created for them.
    If the apps are, indeed, using the root password this is something you should change. You'll need to check the apps' configurations and various logs to find out what they're using.
    In addition, if you haven't already done so, check out NaviCat. It's a GUI front-end for administering MySQL. While I don't use it at all for table management, it's front-end for managing users and permissions is way ahead of the command line.

  • Mysql password change

    10.5 server offers the ability to change the root password on the mysql database from within the UI. While this is a welcome change it doesn't work for me. I am running this on a test box so not live or in any dire need but has anyone else run in to this issue? The instance of mysql works fine and can change the password from terminal just fine. Curious a fresh install, no upgrade, with the default mysql version which ships this doesn't work.

  • Forgotten BOE and Mysql passwords

    Hi,
    We used to run BOE XI 3.1 on Windows server 2003.
    The system hasnt been used in about 2 years, and we now need to revive it. But we have no recollection of the usernames\passwords for any of it.
    I've managed to reset the Mysql password, and reset the password for BOE(Like ive read in other forums), but this has resulted in not being able to access the CMC - the page dosnt show up. Im assuming because BOE wont be able to connect to the db, because of the new password.
    Is there any way to change the Mysql connection settings for BOE?
    Regards,

    Hi Jeff,
    Thanks for the quick reply.
    Managed to resolve it:
    Had to go into the Central Configuration Manager... Click on properties... Then the configuration tab... then click on specifiy - It allowed me to specify the new password there.
    Regards,

  • MySQL Manager, cannot set MySQL password in order to connect...

    I just installed the default MySQL files for the MySQL server (v4.1.13a) included with Tiger Server (v10.4.3). I was connected to the server remotely with Remote Desktop. I checked the box to allow network connections, and then briefly lost connection to the server via Remote Desktop as I was entering the password in the verify password field. Once I reestablished a connection to the server via Remote Desktop, all seemed okay. So, I tried connecting to the MySQL server with CocoMySQL (v0.5), but was refused connection. The firewall is not blocking the MySQL port. MySQL > Status shows that MySQL is running and shows root@localhost as the current user. I've tried connecting with the usernames root, admin and mysql with the password that I set in the MySQL Manager and with the passwords of the root and admin users of the server... but I cannot establish a connection via CocoMySQL. When I go to the MySQL Manager, and stop the service in order to change/ set the mysql password, but I am unable to because the verify field is not editable. Any thoughts? Thanks!

    What you need to do is open the MySQL Manager in the Server folder in Applications. Click the lock to authenticate. Stop the service. Click the Allow connections box and then start the service again. That just worked for me.

  • I changed my apple password now i cloud sign in box keeps popping up on my I pad 2 and will not take my password

    I changed my apple password from my i phone so when I tried to get on on my Ipad 2, the sign into icloud keeps popping up! It will not go away after entering the password, it doesnt say it's wrong it just keeps popping up! I have had no prolems with my iphone or my mac! I tried updating and that didnt help! Someone please help!!

    The reason it won't authenticate your password is because it isn't connected to wifi.  Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, the release and wait for it to restart.  As soon as it restarts, quickly go to Settings>Wi-Fi and connect it before it starts prompting you.  Once it's connected to wifi, enter your password when prompted and it should take it this time.

  • HT5622 I changed my Apple password and I get the information at the wrong email address.  The correct email shows in my Apple account.  Why is the mail going to the wrong email? How do I fix it?

    I changed my Apple password and I get the information back at the wrong email address.  My email address is right under my Apple ID.  How do I get this corrected?

    Okay so I associate the e-mail address as the apple ID and that seems to be a wrong assumption.  I did go to my Apple ID and changes the e-mail address and the password but for the same and only Apple account I have ...
    That is good.  In that case, your one and only account has not changed, just the login credentials you use for it.  All your previous purchases will remain associated with that account, and the new login.
    In essence, an AppleID is an email, but it has two parts.  One is the login email address and password everyone traditionally thinks of as an AppleID.  But that in turn is linked to an account with Apple.  As long as you use the manage Apple ID portal to just change the email address and/or password for your exisiting AppleID, then the internal account tracks along with those changes as well.
    However, on your iOS devices, you will need to log out and then log back in with the new login credentials:
    settings -> iTunes & App Stores - tap your AppleID, and choose log out.  Then log back in with the new email address and new password.

    I'd say your best bet is to try to regain access to your old account. Call 1-800-MY-APPLE, and ask to talk to the account security team. Hopefully they can verify you are the account owner, and then reset the password for you.
