Got it. Seemed unspecific. I went ahead and installed it anyway, and it's functioning for the most part.
I am having trouble with MySQL. When I first installed it, MySQL and phpmyadmin was working fine. I then ran the security script and accepted the defaults and put in passwords.
Now, I can't connect to MySQL. When I try to access it via XAMPP (after logging in to the apache prompt) I get:
phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.
Error
MySQL said: Documentation
#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
When I try to login using MySQL Administrator, I get:
Connection Error
Could not connect to MySQL instance at localhost.
Error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) (code 2002)
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
