MySql permission problems (Win 2000)



I screwed up the permissions on my database. Basically I revoked all
the permissions of the root account on the mysql table.

To try to fix this, I went through all of the instructions here:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/...rmissions.html

running:
mysqld-nt.exe --defaults-file="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server
5.0\my.ini" --init-file=C:\mysql-init.txt
except in the mysql-init.txt file I put this:

GRANT ALL ON mysql.* TO root

Does any one know why this isn't working?

Try comp.database.mysql. This is a PHP newsgroup.
