Subject: Adding New Data Source in ODBC 'Access Denied'
Posted By: crmpicco Post Date: 5/16/2006 8:45:19 AM
Hello all,

I am trying to install MySQL on my machine at the moment.

I have downloaded the file mysql-essential-5.0.21-win32 from the MySQL website and installed it. I then downloaded MySQL Control Center, which came zipped in a folder called mysqlcc-0.9.2-win32.

I have installed both applications and I have a MySQL database which I have acquired from elsewhere. I copy/pasted it into my C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\data directory, but when I try to add a new database in MySQL CC it doesnt allow me.

I have also installed the ODBC for MySQL (called mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.12-win32).  However, when I try to add a new data source in the Control Panel I get this error:

[MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver]Access denied for user 'versiontwo'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

versiontwo is the name of the database.
the database has a password.

Any ideas? Have i not installed something?

Thanks in advance.
