How to create new mysql user/db in Mac OS X? Can any one please let me know how to create new user and new db in MySQL? How to use mysqladmin in Mac OS X?
If you are using the terminal client, generally you can do things like reset the root users password for mysql or create databases.
A simple example can be found at the MySQL docs site, of which I will copy the highlights.

To create a new MySQL user:


Login to MySQL in Terminal:mysql -u username
In the prompt:CREATE USER 'admin'@'localhost';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'admin'@'localhost';
If you want to create a database: create database name; is all you need to do


If you do decide to use mysqladmin, mysqladmin can create and drop databases, but it cannot create new users.
