Hello all, When I try to connect I get this message: #1045 - Access denied for user: root@localhost' (Using password: YES). Can anyone help me? Do I need to do anything in the php.ini file or anywhere else.

sounds like you need to set a password in the phpMyAdmin config file for the root user (as defined in MYSQL) because obviously logging in with an empty password doesn't work.

I am trying to get phpMyAdmin to login into the database. ~WILL~
