[support] Error While following INSTALmysql,txt for Drupal 7.2

[Jamie Holly]

It sounds like the username you are trying to access MySQL with is
either invalid or doesn't have the CREATE privilege. You can create the
new database as root and then go into the MySQL command line as root and
run the GRANT query to give your new user access to the database.  So it
would be:


mysqladmin -u root -p create databasename
(enter the password when prompted)

mysql -u root -p
(again - enter the password when prompted)

And then pick up the instructions right after that.
