I use MySQL within my application and I just tried to connect to my local MySQL server. First I tried to connect using the right connection details (localhost, user: root, no password). It succeeds. Then I tried to connect using the wrong connection details (localhost, user: root1, password: 123). It failed. But if i leave the password blank then it succeeds? I dont know why but everytime i leave the password blank and only provide a username (whatever username you can imagine) it succeeds! Can anyone help me with this crazy error? Dont know why the server doesn't reject my connection attempt.
Thanks in advance!
