MYSQL SERVER QUESTION? PLEASE HELP!

03/27/2008 20:17 revolution263#1
Im following forcers guide to making my own server. I have gottin to the 8th step. I have to put in a few queries in my mysql command line client. The first thing wich is

SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = OLD_PASSWORD('test');

after I press enter is says query ok..
Then I go to the next step... by putting in

ALTER TABLE `account`.`account` MODIFY COLUMN `password` VARCHAR(32) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL;

then its says..

ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'account.account' doesn't exist

It also asks for you to put in

insert into account.account (name,password,reg_date) values ('test','53b6320eb06e2c62888a6d1739cd24bd',now());

grant all on account.* to 'ODBC'@'localhost';

grant all on my.* to 'ODBC'@'localhost';

But I get the same message after trying those as well.
Can someone please help me, and let me know what I did wrong or have to change.
Thanks...

Well, i dont know a "forcers guide" but the error message give you all informations you need. You do not have a database 'account' or you have one, but it doesnt contain a table with the name 'account'.

AFAIK the users information is stored into the "mysql" database.

Type:
USE mysql;
SHOW COLUMNS FROM user;

This table contains a password field, but its not VARCHAR(32) like in your statement above, its char(41).

Well why does it matter if there is a pic.... it will just show you what I told you. It tells me "ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'account.account' doesn't exist"
Do you think that forcer meant for me to put my mysql account in the part that says " 'account.account' "?

Theres the Eudemons_phdev folder and inside of that is the ACCServer folder, GameServer, Beta File, and data.rar

Then there is a folder a test folder but nothing is in it.

And theres an mysql folder with a bunch of MYI, MYD, and MYI type files in there

And also inside of the data folder there is ANOTHER data folder with a PID file in it.
