Hello all, any help would be really appreciated!

 

I'm new to PHP and MySQL but wanting to learn. However I'm having trouble assigning a root password I think. I'm working through a book (Database Driven Websites) and I'm stuck. I've installed PHP and MySQL onto my Mac (OSX 10.4).

 

I'm in the terminal and typing in "mysql -u mysql" as it says but it just says "-bash: mysql: command not found"

 

Not sure what this means or what to do. Any help would be great. Is it anything to do with the bin directory? If so, how can I write this command in the bin directory? I think I want to be getting up the "mysql>" command prompt, but don't know how.

 

Thank you in advance.
