Re: phpmyadmin foulup

Did you set the password for root user in mysql? Then you need to enter the password in [phpmyadmin directory]/config.inc.php. Find line:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password']      = '';

and enter the password here -----------^ Leevy, Joffrey L wrote:

Hi all: I was trying to use phpmyadmin for the first time and messed up when trying to give the root@localhost a password. I did that because phpmyadmin told me something about lax security using "root" with no password. Anyhow something went wrong.

Now I can't do anything with phpadmin or mysql client.    The message is -

"Error 1045: Access Denied for User: (Using Password:No). Grateful for anyone's help. Thanks
