I have tried this on both 2004.3 and 2004.2 and both versions of gentoo experience the same problems (latest gentoo-dev-source). I have created a user on MySQL with a password set. When I go to log in as the user with mysql -u user -p, it won't let me log in until I remove the -p. I've tried restarting mysql, reemerging it, clearing the databases, and the basic flush privileges and nothing seems to work. I also cannot connect to MySQL from a remote client (no firewall, so port 3306 is open for mysql).
Is is prompting you for the password? How did you create the user? Could you please run this statement and provide me with the result? "SELECT * FROM mysql.user WHERE user='yourusernamehere';" (put in the correct username). The hash of the password should be there.

O yea, forgot. I created the user with the GRANT ALL PERMISSION ON *.* ... command. The password hash is there.
What's the full command you used? the mysql command line client does keep history across sessions, so it should be easy to find. also, run "SELECT PASSWORD('yourpasswordhere');" and see if returns the same value as the hash from the SELECT. As for connecting from other machines, see the my.cnf file, and take out the 'bind-address = 127.0.0.1' statement if you need to connect from another machine. If the password hashes don't match, then reset it to match, and tell me here. If it still doesn't work after that, generate another password that you can safely disclose (generate the user @localhost for safety), and tell me the full commandline incl. the password, as well as 'emerge info' output.
Hashes match. Got the networking working, and for some reason the password is required for external computers but is off on localhost...
Sounds like you have some other auth rules in place (that is matching localhost first). Have a look for a rule like %@localhost. If you can't find it, attach the output of 'mysqldump -n -u root -p ... user' (with the passwords blanked out).

dang, I cut off some of end of the command. It's 'mysqldump -n -u root -p ... mysql user' Replace ... with your root mysql password.
Same error as my last reply. Database user doesn't exist or database <password> doesn't exist.
I think you're running it wrong. If my mysql root password is foo. I would run: mysqldump -n -u root -pfoo mysql user

Sorry, it didn't all copy. You can see the output at http://pro5ive.info/mysql.txt
So lets clarify this, because it's not making sense here. from a remote machine: "mysql -u C_J_Pro -pPASSWORD -hSERVERIP" fails but from the local machine: "mysql -u C_J_Pro -pPASSWORD" works Is this correct?
Works for the first one, but fails on the second.
I suspect you did something not right with your /etc/hosts. On the local machine, try: "mysql -u C_J_Pro -pPASSWORD -hlocalhost" then include the output of: "getent hosts localhost" it should be: "127.0.0.1 localhost [maybe other host names here]" it must be in that order.
Output: 127.0.0.1 localhost Should I downgrade to 2.0.18? I had 2.0.18 running before I reformatted.
You didn't say if ""mysql -u C_J_Pro -pPASSWORD -hlocalhost" worked. I'm really confused now as to why you can't get in locally, but your can get in remotely. As a crazy test, try to add a user 'C_J_Pro@localhost', and see if that helps it.
That first command didn't work and nor did this latest command.
I just tried to compile anope and it returned -lmysqlclient missing. Think this may be part of the problem? BTW, I'm currently in #gentoo on irc.freenode.net if you want to contact me.
