I have unbuntu 10.04 running as my desktop inside VBOX as a install not from the ISO and installed My-SQL server 5.1. using synaptic package manager.
in running the MySQL Administrator program its asking for a server? login and password. I left the password blank on the install.
nothing is listed by default. I suspect I need to start the SQL server engine somehow?
Create a new connection and whatever else?
can someone advise me in detail what to do first.
I have used MSDE in Windows so I know it pretty well as well as creating SQL code pretty well.
