Please check this immediately


Before any more time expires, if you have not successfully connected to your MariaDB database on the cpsc server (I’m talking about your database, named the same as your username, not the “galactic” database from previous homeworks) please make sure you can do so NOW. Some students evidently didn’t have their database password set correctly, and I want to eliminate all such cases immediately.

The command is the same as it was (mariadb -u yourusername -pyourpassword), only you will use your UMW username, and the password I wrote on the board in class this week, as your credentials.

If you attempt this and get a “login denied” or “password incorrect” or other connection error, please immediately email both myself and Ian (ifinlay _AT_ umw _DOT_ edu) to get your MariaDB password reset.
