MySQL - Newbie - How to start !!!
- Thread starter rbarun
- Start date
I assume you are using Windoz (MySQL.zip)
After installing it and making sure that the service has started, open DOS prompt,
go to c:\mysql\bin
>mysql -u root (press enter)
Now you are logged on MySQL prompt. You can issue your queries there.
To avoid having to go to c:\mysql\bin dir every time you log on, add the same path to autoexec.bat (an entry would be something like SET PATH = C:\MYSQL\BIN)
The first thing you should do is GRANT correct rights for user root
I suggest you start downloading the full manual
