aspberry Pi) and having problems setting password for root when installing MySQL. Despite seeming to accept the password, it does not seem to and I get:
when starting mysql with:
mysql -u root -p whatever
Tried uninstalling and reinstalling
mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables
andupdate user set Password=PASSWORD('new-password') where user='root';
Now getting:
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
Is there another way to set this password?
