Ensure of not miss the final ';' on any statement at the prompt.
After create your new user, grant some privileges or wont be able of do any.
After that, you have to flush privileges, so mysql can save those.
Then, 'quit' should work: will see 'Bye' and back to shell.

* Just a note, mysql is case insensitive, dont need to bother withs caps at prompt as those are just a convention (most of the time).

The error was spotted by someone on the wxforum.net Forum - There is a "." before the ";" that should be an apostrophe.

Now I am wrestling with the upgrade of the version of weewx -
another atypical (mine never go according to standard) build process!

I changed to the directory where I have the compressed file:

cd /mnt/home/savestuff/weather/weewx-2.0.2

Then I started the build process:

./setup.py build

I received the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "./setup.py", line 57, in <module>
import configobj
ImportError: No module named configobj

I have no idea what this means.

Uh, oh ... Debian dependency-hell from the demon-distro.

There is a list of prerequisites (including python-configobj) and they spawn over a dozen dependencies of which gtk2.0-binver-2.10.0 appears to be unobtanium (no libgtk-2.1-0 that I can find actually creates it, contrary to the as-usual defective Debian docs.)

Anyone have an idea where one might get gtk2.0-binver-2.10.0 that works in Puppy?

I hate Debian and am not real happy with the bazillion Python add-ons either. Sigh.
