Edit the script (with vi or another text editor).

And set the login value to admin and the password value to the value of your Plesk Admin password.

Save the changes and run the script again

You should only run it as:

Code: Select all

mysql_fix_privilege_tables <password>

where <password> is your actual password for the root@localhost account.

If you are running PSA you should use the following command:

Code: Select all

mysql_fix_privilege_tables --user=admin --password=<password>

where <password> is your actual password for the admin@localhost account.

for the truly lazy:
mysql_fix_privilege_tables --user=admin --password=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`
