Hey Peter,

When you use "mysql" or "mysqlshow" without the -u parameter it uses
your current username. If you have not already added that user to
mysql you will need read the following for info on how to...

http://www.mysql.com/documentation/mysql/bychapter/manual_Privilege_system.html#Adding_users

Alternatively you can use the -u parameter for a user that already
exists in the database.

Also be sure to grant all of the proper permissions.
