CREATE new database

[Anon]

Hi everybody...
I have just installed MySQL on Mac OS X.

When I try to create a new DB:

[localhost:~] loris% mysqladmin create DB

it says:

./bin/mysqladmin: CREATE DATABASE failed; error: 'Access denied for user: '@' to database 'DB'

Can someone help me please? How can i fix this problem in order to create a new DATABASE?

Thank you very much.
Loris

CREATE DATABASE dbname;

that's not the problem they're having - it's a username/permission problem.

you need to log into mysql with a username, like so

./mysql -u myusername -p

which will prompt you for a password, which you can then use to create databases, etc
