      As far as I know the ODBC-driver is not ready for MySQL ver. 5 yet.

      To create users try the program “MySQL Administrator” from http://www.mysql.com. (don't know if YOG will work with the new user SCHEMA.

      How did you create the use KAMIL 'Kamil'@'localhost' (Using password: YES)?

      With a fresh install only use ROOT exists!

      MySQLAdmin was writen for older versions of MySQL and I too have experienced missing or wrong informatiom in it.

      The error you are getting simply means that you are giving wrong password.

      You cannot connect to any MySql 4.1.x and 5.x via ODBC with a user that has an assigned password. Create a user with no password and you'll be able to connect swiftly.

      > Shadow …

      I have 4 users alle with password om my 4.1.7 installtion, and I can connect through ODBC.

      I believe it needs the latest my-ODBC, and I don't think there is any ODBC for MySQL 5 yet …

      You must be using the old password scheme then. I don't know if MySql 5.x still has that option… The latest MyODBC is not even 4.0 compliant yet!

      I think they have not even updated winmysqladmin for a long time.

      Very true, it's replaced by MySqlAdminsitrator.

      Agreed!

      However there is one facility in Winmysqladmin that's not in MySQLAdministrator: You can not only stop the server but also uninstall the service from Winmysqladmin without uninstalling the application. I'd allways preferred to uninstall the service that way before upgrading. But with the new Win-installer it probably isn't necessary.

      Further you'll have to get MysQl running before you can use MySQLadministrator – you can't bypass the logon-screen.

      In general I think the people MySQL are very performng vey bad as far as documenting what utilities fit what version of MySQL. I think it called “Version's Management” (it is in Danish!)

      And what happened to “MySQL Control Center” ??

      Concerning the ODBC issue: I really rigoriously followed the instruction when I first upgraded from a 4.0 to a 4.1 version. So the user's and password's scema shoul be updated as well.

      Development of MyCC has been ceased. With time it will be replaced by MySQL Admin and MySQL Query Browser.

      With a nice installer being provided with MySQL 4.1.7, I guess all the above problems will be solved 🙄
