I gotta let this out. I apologize..

Why the FUUUCK does MySQL not let me log into my FUCNING ROOT USER AND THE OTHER USER I MADE...
I thought i fixed it a few days ago, but apparently not. Now im considering trashing this shitproject for a while.
*insert awesome words that illustrate extreme rage and a broken keyboard*

    If ur on a lamp stack, just go into the FS, find the DB files specific to your user, back copies up, and nuke the install from the distro PM. Re-install and run the setup script again.

    I left out some details, but that's the gist.

    @mgagemorgan i decided i had enough of MySQL, so im gonna try out MariaDB instead. I know its kinda the same, but im hoping the issues go away :P

    Did you flush privileges?
    Or could have corrupted mysql db.
    Never seen that in 17 years.
    MySql -p as root should work all the time.

    @nbamaral for the second user, yes, many times. It doesnt explain why i couldnt log in to root tho. Its really frustrating :/

    Those 2 characters spell trouble 😄
    Are you escaping them, \\ and \" ?
    Set mysql to listen only on localhost or better yet in default Unix socket and unless it's a server full of hostile users with shell access it will be reasonably secured

    @nbamaral nope, wasn't escaping anything XD
    Now im struggling with reinstalling MySQL tho, since im more used to it than MariaDB :P

    They're pretty much the same, the developer of mariadb created mysql. 😊
