Installing MySql 5.0

[nicasa]

Hi All,

I am new to the world of SQL and would like some help regarding the start at the DOS prompt

I have done a basic install but when I type mysql at the DOS prompt I get a "You do not have permission error ..., cannot logon as local host"

The SQL server is on the same machine as the installation and I would simply like an anonymous log in.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks,

Steven Matthews

The only time I've had to install MySQL 5 on a windows box I just followed the directions at

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/windows-installation.html

and it worked ok, of course, as always, YMMV.

HIH,
Derek
