hi all,

I been spending days tring to resolse this error… I am following curt
hobbs tutorial "rolling with ruby on rails. originally i installed
MySQL with a pasword so i was running into problems trying to connect.

Mysql::Error in Recipe#new
#28000Access denied for user ‘root’@‘localhost’ (using password: NO)

I removed the password and now i am getting another error:

Mysql::Error in Recipe#new
#28000Access denied for user ‘root’@‘localhost’ (using password: YES)

Any info or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I am stuck and don’t know how to get around this error.

This is a bug that is addressed in the book “Agil Web D. with
Rails”. They say to put a username in you .yaml and it will work.

After making a change in database.yml, did you bounce the server? Stop
and restart whichever web server you’re using so it can load the new
user info.

Best,

Hi, I’m having the same problem, and I tried Charlie B.'s suggestion
unsuccessfully, would anyone mind explaining the remedy in more detail
or sharing something that works?

thank you,

It’s the solution. I had the same error because I forgot restart the
server after change database.yml

Thanks!

Good solution guys, thanks. I am also using the “Rolling with Ruby on
Rails Revisited” tutorial, and it says to configure the
‘ODBC’@‘localhost’ connection. If you were sucessfull at doing this
then replace the ‘root’ username in database.yml with ‘ODBC’. Then it
worked.
