    Default Datasource is requiring login/password

    Just did a reformat & upgrade to WinXP from w2k and only have 2 MySql
    databases. Although CF Administrator validates all the databases, which have
    been set up correctly in OBDC and MySQL, for some reason when I try to
    preview a page, I am getting an Error Executive Database Query, "General
    error: No database selected" for either of these 2 mySQL databases. They
    both show up in the DW2004 Database Panel, but when you click on the
    database table, you see "Loading . . . " and then a small "Datasource login"
    window opens. In MySQL, my username is root and there is no password, which
    is how I had it before and it worked fine. My logins for CF Administrator
    don't work. I don't have passwords set for these databases, so why are they
    asking for logins? I looked at the Sandbox stuff in the Administrator, but I
    don't think that applies.

    Can someone help me with this?

    Thanks very much,
    Dagny

    Did you specify a default database in the ODBC Admin ?
