What kind of error is this?

[Me2Be]

Newbie MySQL person here. Can anyone tell my why I would get this error when trying to access this? And also, how to fix this? (I'm patiently waiting for my host to help me figure this out also)


/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error:
"Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (using password "NO")


What is wrong?

Thanks!

It looks like your user may not have access to the mysql server.

Have you already installed vbulletin with that user, or is this error while attempting to install?

Your host probably has a misconfiguration with your user, but that is just my guess.

I haven't installed Vb yet - I WANT TO :)

I keep running into all of these little configuration issues... I'm waiting for my host to fix it, but I haven't heard back yet :(

in config.php, the variable $servername="localhost"; is wrong i guess. contact your server admin and ask what the sql server is called.
