Re: Re3: uninstall MySQL

Hey guys,

thanks for the feedback. As far as resetting the root password goes, I
probably should have tried to get that sorted out first, but being a user
who was weaned on the mac, I expected the install to simply write over the
old one... chalk that up to my OSX/UNIX learning curve.

Glenn, to answer your questions:

there was no other type of install option - basic was the only one.

I did restart the machine after discovering the dual icon problem.

phpMyAdmin re-installs with the MySQL.pkg that Tenon provides. So, it wasn't
a separate install. But, I did rm -R phpMyAdmin as well so I am mystified as
to why the password protection would have remained intact after a
re-install.

I am going to look for the iTools prefs now, but before i modify them, can
Eric or Sue pipe up and let me know if these files can be safely edited by
hand? Or am I better off trying to reinstall iTools to get rid of the
duplicate MySQL icons?

Cheers,
dan
