[Discuss] mysql/mariadb



running on an intel nuc pentium

moylan ~[263] uname -a
Linux arcturus 4.11.6-201.fc25.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 20 20:21:11
UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

root ~[144] mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'
(using password: YES)

i've googled for this problem and found no solutions.  i may
remember incorrectly, but i don't believe this has been a
problem in the past.

any suggestions as to how to set the root password and get
the mysql prompt?

tia,
ole dan
