Maybe you need to edit the parameters the connection to the sever is opened with. Here is an example how you can set a different password:

Linux / Unix based

$ export MYSQL_TEST_PASS=root

Windows

$ SET MYSQL_TEST_PASS=root

Parameter List

• MYSQL_TEST_USER ( User )
• MYSQL_TEST_PASS ( Password )
• MYSQL_TEST_PROT ( Network Protocol )
• MYSQL_TEST_ADDR ( Network Adress )
• MYSQL_TEST_DBNAME ( Database name)
• MYSQL_TEST_CONCURRENT ( 1 = enable ConcurrentTest )
