DLATK: Resolving (1045, "Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)")
This project is written around a passwordless user (and MyISAM as a default engine) indicating databases's aren't the projects strong suite.
The username is fixed as the current logged in user getpass.user
So recommends:
create a non-root user the same as your unix user (replace XXX below with your local user name).
create user XXX identified by '';
grant all on DATABASE.* to XXX@localhost;

DATABASE is the name of the database where the samples where loaded which is probably dla_tutorialby your command line.
