Password Woes in phpmyadmin

[John Hansen]

Ok, not sure what I did, but somehow phpmyadmin will not take my password, I may have hit change password, but it will not take what I put in. I've looked into the config.inc and added a password, but this is not recognized. right now I have:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser'] = 'pma';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = ''; or a password I put in.

I've tried no password, changing the password etc. but all I get is:
#1045 - Access denied for user 'pma'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
When I try to log in to phpmyadmin. Is there a way to get the original settins of newuser/wampp, or to find out what my old password was?

I'm running XAMPP for Windows Version 1.5.0-pl1 on Windows XP.

Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks,
John

Hello John very soon phpmyadmin first permission of user PMA put him all permission or the ones that be you necessary.
Then put the continued password Publishing the File config.inc thinks that does not codify the password what would agree codifies you your password
Nome: pma
Password: yourpassword
AND publishes this line that is.

Code: Select all

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass'] = 'yourpassword'; // access to the "mysql/user"
