Password to mysql

[Frank Sauerbier]

Hi all,
does anyone know how to login into mysql which was installed by ignite-ux on an UX 11.22 box.
We want to use mysql for other databases as well.
Is this possible?
Thx
Frank

To recap: you cloned this machine from another machine's Ignite archive (make_tape_recovery, make_net_recovery, make_sys_image) and you cannot access your sql application?

If this is the case, your sql information would have been duplicated from the source machine's image.

Hi Frank.

User account administration is perhaps the worst part of mysql installation. It is a hangover from the open-source world which aims for total flexibility.

I suggest that you point your browser at

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/index.html

which gives all the mysql documentation.

Then scroll down and read the documentation under sections 2.4.2 and 2.4.3 (post-installation administration) which will help a lot.

Hi Cheryl, hi Steve,
now I found out that mysql was installed by Sysinvmgr (called SIM). I was confused about this and Systems Insight Manager.
So I removed it and will install mysql itself.
Thanks for your answers.

Just in case you didn't know, mysql is included in Internet Express:
