Why does MySQL keeps prompting me for undeclared password? <p>i am new to this so please go easy on me :-). i searched the net and this site for answers but was unable to find anything similar, or its because my knowledge is only limited.</p> <p>I installed MySQL workbench, that was okay. Open the program and created a new connections, i didn't specify any password, even click "clear" several times but i am still being prompted with a password which i have no idea what it is? </p> <p>Sorry for the beginners question but i have no idea what i am doing wrong</p> <p>many thanks</p>
