    Frustraiting sql error on installtion, please help!

    Well thankyou for coming and having a look,

    I'll make this brief. When installing MySQL Server (for a server i'm going to compile) I keep getting the same problem. This is, once it's installed and i'm doing a standard configuation, it asks me for my old root password... I DONT KNOW IT! and so I get frustraited as then it cant install. I've removed all of sql from my computer, manually and non-mannualy, and always the same problem. If anyone can help me, then +Rep x2

    Edit: after 4 hours I restarted my computer... When I came back and ran it again it worked Good old restart of the computer

    But to never have this problem again go to mysql console and type this command:

    SET PASSWORD FOR root@localhost=PASSWORD('typeyournewpasswordhere');

    to set a new or different password
