Asked by rrchandrakmpati

Hi I installed MySql-server in my ubuntu as per the guidelines given by https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/mysql.html

during installation it is asked for bind-address, I gave it as 127.0.0.1

then I am trying to connect to SQL data base, with command "#mysql " it is giving showing that

root@ravichandra:/etc/mysql# mysql
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

could you please let me know Where I am doing wrong??

Thankyou,
