Erland Flaten	Tuesday 09 November 2004 12:51:45 pm I have installed the new 3.5 beta on my Mac running the latest OS X and ez will not connect to the database. In the Terminal I can connect to my installed MySQL 4.1.7 and do some SQL commands. I provide the same password to EZ as I use when I connect to MySQL in terminal: MacErland:/usr/local/mysql/bin eflaten$ ./mysql -u root -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 2 to server version: 4.1.7-standard i am not very good in unix etc. but sometimes I can smell some fire. I have posted the problem on the good site www.entropy.ch and I have started a tread that sayes a new passwordformat in MySQL 4.1.7 cant be read by the MySQL frontend I use. Maybe this is why I cant connect the ez 3.5 to this base. Here is this tread. Thanks.. http://www.entropy.ch/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=1650 Writer and webproducer in Lillehammer, Norway
