>Nevertheless, you can still get LAMS to work if you have changed the MySQL root password. It's a bit more fiddily, but given that you have changed the password of MySQL, this shouldn't be a problem.

Oh, definitely. Let's get fiddily. What do I need to do to get LAMS to work?

Marc,

The fix it's actually quite simple.

1.- Stop the LAMS Server (using the LAMS server controller app)
2.- Open up a terminal (see in the /Applications/Utilities folder)
3.- See the steps I've taken in the attached picture

The summary of commands are:

sudo su -

echo "LAMS_DB_ROOT_PASSWORD=your-password-here" >> /usr/local/lams-1.0.2/ant/build.properties

cd /usr/local/lams-1.0.2/ant/

../apache-ant-1.6.5/bin/ant prepare-db

../apache-ant-1.6.5/bin/ant import-db

Of course, change the "your-password-here" for whatever MySQL root password you have set up.

Once you gone thru these steps in the picture and the output you get looks *exactly* the same, then go to the LAMS Server controller application and LAMS should be working now.

Please let me know how it goes either way.

Thanks,

Ernie
