Do you know the mysql root password?

Try this:
#mysql mysql
You may be asked for a password. It is the root mysql password. If you
can get in, then
$quit;

and retry the failing command, but replace "password" with the
password you just used.

If you were not asked for a password, but went straight to a mysql prompt, then
$quit;

and retry the failing command omitting "-p password"

If you don't know the mysql root password, then I'm afraid I don't
know how to overcome that problem

cheers
