  • password update failed ... Why ?

    I had the same error. I'm running Tiger, and didn't see a tcshrc file, but I did change;
    /private/etc/csh.login

    so now it looks like -

    # System-wide .login file for csh(1).

    setenv PATH "/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin"

    so a command will look in the mysql bin last, and everything worked.
