[Discuss] mysql issue

[dan moylan]

setting up mysql has always worked for me using this process
but now, i seem to be denied for some reason.

  root ~[121] mysql -u root

  MariaDB [(none)]> show grants;
  +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
  | Grants for root at localhost                                                                                                               |

  moylan ~[1006] mysql -u moylanus_moy -p
  Enter password:
  ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'moylanus_moy'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
  moylan ~[1007]

i've tried repeatedly, being careful with the password.  any
suggestions as to what i might now be doing wrong and what i
need to change?

tia,
ole dan
