mysql error connecting to the server did not ask for password during the installation process I wanted to learn MySQL, so I decided to download it from https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/. However, during the installation it did not ask me for any password, now I cannot connect to the server as it needs a password. I have tried reinstalling it but it still does not ask for the password. Can somebody tell what the problem is?
It happens to me several times, if you want to solve this download the full package installer. The second installer from the link you posted. I think that will save you from unnecessary headache.
I hope I’m able to help?
