phpmysql logon error
Posted: 20. December 2006 03:32
Installed xampp on my XP box (zip method) and everything seems to be ok.
I go to localhost\security and install name and passwords as suggested.
I used the same password in both fields.
PHP is still NOT running in safe mode.
Through localhost\xampp\phpinfo.php I can logon using the name and password I installed to fix the security hole.
But when I go to localhost\phpmyadmin and type in the username and password I created as per above, I get and "ERROR" - "Cannot log in to the MySQL server"
Would appreciate some insight here. Thanks!

One more request please?
If there is a link anywhere here that has some kind of honest step by step, bit by bit, mile by mile 1st do this, next do this install help for installing PHPBB from scratch on a windows xp box detailed with where to make directorys, where to put certain files, what files to edit and when. This I would gladly pay for.
Thank you,
