im having trouble getting into my mysql database via phpmyadmin. i have the mysql running and when i try and access the phpmyadmin with root and "passwordiuse" it wont let me in. so ive been trying the different ways to change the root pass but the xampp/security way says its done it but i cannot stil access it. it seems the mysql is just stoped all connections? any help would be great thanks.
1. Enter your current password in the
Current Passwort field.
2. Enter your new password in the
New Password field.
3. Enter your new password again in the
Repeat the new password field.
4. Stop MySQL then restart MySQL
Try and access phpMyAdmin again by entering your root/newpassword.
Now if this fails again then there is a reset root password batch file:
xampp\mysql\resetroot.bat
Run it and go to the Security page again and start from item 2. above.
See how you go then post back and let us know if it let you in this time.
