I've been running XAMPP on Mac ( OS 10.5.8 ) for the past few months without any problems until recently. I'm not sure what's going on or how to fix this.
After I reboot my computer and log back in and start up XAMPP, I get this error message with I try to access phpMyAdmin:
"#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) "
So I reinstalled XAMPP and got it working again. My websites and databases are all working fine. The I reboot (or log out), log back in, start up XAMPP and the same thing happens. I can't connect to the MySQL database anymore. Same error message while trying to access phpMyAdmin:
"#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) "
Any ideas why the MySQL database keeps getting messed up after a reboot?
Thanks to anyone who can help.
