1. Here's what I found in the error log file:

2. When I go to
http://localhost, I get the standard XAMPP welcome screen, with the options to try the demos (they all work, I tried every one), launch phpmyadmin, etc.
3. When I click on phpmyadmin from that welcome screen, I get the same error that the previous user described:
Welcome to phpMyAdmin
Error
MySQL said:
#2003 - The server is not responding
Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed.
HOWEVER:
4. When I try
http://127.0.01/phpmyadmin in the URL box, I get a log in screen, asking for a login and password... I had never tried that method of getting to phpMyAdmin before, so I am pleased... and yet, I would like the other method to work as well.
Do you need more info from me?
