Im fairly new at mysql at command line level. unfortunately the assignment i have been set means i have to use command line. I am accessing the schools server via PuTTY. log on no problems them type mysql -p, log in fine but then when i go to create the database i get the 1044 error. i have also tried root but no luck either.

mysql> create database hello;

I checked the privileges and they seem fine (i think)
mysql> show grants;

so I am sure its something I am doing wrong but can anyone tell me why I am unable to create anything. as I said early I am new to command line but not mysql or databases in general.
