Back Hi Ritu,
The last time, I have solved this problem by converting password for a user that is used to connect from DBDesigner to MySQL to an old pre-4 (See http://pre-4.ora-code.com).0 passwords type. Someone in one of MySQL lists posted solution a few months ago. For conversion use, from MySQL manual:
"Reset the password to pre-4 (See http://pre-4.ora-code.com).1 style for each user that needs to use a pre-4 (See http://pre-4.ora-code.com).1 client program. This can be done using the SET PASSWORD statement and the OLD_PASSWORD() function:
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR -> 'some_user'@'some_host' = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd');
Alternatively, use UPDATE and FLUSH PRIVILEGES:
mysql> UPDATE mysql.user SET Password = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd') -> WHERE Host = 'some_host' AND User = 'some_user'; mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;"

Hi,
I just downloaded the latest version of DBDesigner 4 from fabFORCE.net (v4.0.5.6) and installed it on Windows. I already have MySQL server installed and running on my machine. When I try to connect to MySQL DB, it asks me for the Username (root) and password. I use the same root password that I use for the MySQL Administrator (and it works), however, I keep getting "dbExpress: Invalid Username/password" message. Can someone please help??
Thanks, Ritu
