Description:
Attempting to start MySQLCC 0.9.3 in Win98 results in an error (see below) and program termination. Tried restarting PC (didn't fix), tried uninstalling, re-downloading and reinstalling, but error remains. Problem appeared several days after upgrading from version 0.9.2. When problem occured, I also had the Win98 ODBC connection editor open, as well as CodeCharge RAD software, which was generating PHP to interact with MySQL. 

MYSQLCC caused an invalid page fault in
module QT-MT312.DLL at 017f:39ee1141.

Couldn't find anything about this searching current bug reports. What else should I try?

I can't get it running long enough to try!

Further testing showed that this was triggered by adding a password to the root user from the Control Center. Deleting the password from the MySQL command line and calling FLUSH PRIVILEGES allowed the Control Center to start.

I am fairly new to MySQL/MySQLCC, but I am surprised that the Control Center did not know to use the password it had just created. Is this expected/intentional behavior, or a bug?

This appears to be a duplicate of bug 1622 (MySQLCC crashing when using invalid login).

MySQLCC only knows to use the login you give it.  It should not crash, of course, but it does not reconfigure itself automatically.

Thank you

This is a problem with mysqlcc failing  to handle gracefully the error from mysql caused by bad authentication.  Make sure that you have created the correct user:host authentication (especially when using mysqlcc from a host different than the host which mysql resides on).  Second, don't choose to connect automatically upon startup to a connection unless you have verified manually via mysqlcc that it works(ie mysqlcc doesn't crash).

Hope  this helps.
