Is your root DB password blank as well?  Were you logged in as root when 
running the scripts?

What do you get if you simply type "mysql" on the command line?  If you 
get a prompt, what does "show processlist" report?

If you weren't logged in as root when running the script, with a blank 
root DB password, then the DB scripts wouldn't work.

That is, with a secured DB server, this wouldn't work:

/usr/libexec/bacula/create_bacula_database

But this would, provided the password were correct:

/usr/libexec/bacula/create_bacula_database -u root --password=<password>

The scripts don't just fail silently, either.
