set password error
If I want to set my password on mysql with this command:

ExecWait '"$INSTDIR\MySQL\bin\mysql" -u "root" -p " " SET PASSWORD = PASSWORD('newpass')'

I get an error.
What's wrong?

PASSWORD('newpass')'

you're using '''''''' :)

try:
ExecWait `"$INSTDIR\MySQL\bin\mysql" -u "root" -p " " SET PASSWORD = PASSWORD('newpass')`

i changed the quotation marks.

Thanks you for the reply,
I use your command, but now I can compile. But It still doesn't change the password.

then the sql syntax is wrong or something else's not working.
