I had a ';' in my root password when I first initialized the MySQL database in CC community 4.3. CC handed the password to MySQL as-is, which then tried to process the characters after the ';' as a second query and threw an error to CC.
CC was stuck telling me to put a password on MySQL, but the characters before ';' had been accepted by MySQL as the root password. I had to delete the root@localhost password from MySQL (accessing mysql from command-line) before I could get this straightened out by putting in a new password via CC. I did not attempt replicate or look further into this trouble.
