Hi,

I'm used to using ORACLE and just trying out MYSQL, PHP and phpmyadmin.

I went for one of the all-in-one options wamp1.7.4.
I can access mysql and my database if I use the mysql console.

I'm now trying to configure phpmyadmin to use mysql but getting error messages.

I open http://localhost/phpmyadmin/scripts/setupphp and enter in mysql root username and password and then create the config file. I then place the config file into the root directory. I then open http://localhost/phpmyadmin/index.php.

I then get the following error message

Mysql says:
#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

I'm using win xp with sp2.

Hopefully someone can help me.

Many Thanks.
