I think you should try to set a password for mysql.  Then proceed to drop the ser database.
 
1. You should set the sysadmin password.  I did it like this:
#mysqladmin -u root password newpassword
Personally, I don't like the way you have to specify the password on the command line.
 
 2. Drop the ser database
 
                    # ser_mysql.sh drop
 
I hope it works for you.

Subject: [Serusers] ser_mysql.sh create database problem

Hi sir,
 
The problem here is i want to drop the database, and i use mysql default password that is blank. but it telling me access denied...
So the question here is how i gonna delete the "ser" database in order for me to recreate it again.
I try use reinit and reinstall command but it keep asking me password and tell me access denied. Can i delete the database using mysql command prompt?
My mysql root password is default that is blank.
 
OS: Linux Fedora Core 2
SER: Latest 0.8.14
Mysql: 3.23.58
 
 
Thanks,
Wong
