Hello, you have to provide the password as a command line parameter to mysql client. For that you have to edit the serctl script.

See 'mysql --help' for more information about command line parameters.

before calling serctl, try setting the environment variable PW. note there are security risks -- anybody able to watch your environment variables will be able to learn the password.
