Installed but Cannot Create User
Hi,
I have just installed the latest version of MySQL and to be frank the interface is not what I expected. I need to create a user so I can use a GUI interface I have downlooaded which I can then use as normal. The command line interface is something I am not familiar with.
Can anyone tell me how to create a new user with password so I can access the server and start creating databases.
Thanks in advance

got it, root was right, but I did create a password. Thanks again
That's strange. Normally with installation user root is created with an empty password except when you installed it with the installer and gave the root account a password already.
Do you remember if you had to give a password when installing MySQL?

Oops, didn't see you already solved it.
