I would highly suggest that you set a password for your database. If you need some help figuring out how to do so, see the relevant wiki page for some help setting it up. The particular section linked to is meant for linux, but it will work on a mysql command-line regardless.

The reason why i didnt set a password for my database was because i only want the server running on localhost any was so no one else can join anyway because i only want to play it by my self.

If you're on a secure system, it's usually easier to set a simple password than trying to get everything to work with no password. Some stuff thinks you just skipped entering one while configuring and won't even start.
