mysql problem

[cyberdogg]

Installation of grant tables failed!

Examine the logs in ./data for more information.
You can also try to start the mysqld demon with:
../bin/mysqld --skip-grant &
You can use the command line tool
../bin/mysql to connect to the mysql
database and look at the grant tables:

shell> ./bin/mysql -u root mysql
mysql> show tables

Try 'mysqld --help' if you have problems with paths. Using --log
gives you a log in ./data that may be helpful.

The latest information about MySQL is available on the web at
Does anyone know how to find out what your mysql password is

Please consult the MySQL manual section: 'Problems running
mysql_install_db',
and the manual section that describes problems on your OS.
Another information source is the MySQL email archive.
Please check all of the above before mailing us!
And if you do mail us, you MUST use the ./bin/mysqlbug script!

Have you requested MySQL access to be set up?
