我从 phpmyadmin 中删除了所有用户，现在它说'#1045 - 用户'root'@'localhost' 访问被拒绝（使用密码：NO）'

Question

I deleted all the users from phpmyadmin and now it is saying

'#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'

It will not let me access ' phpmyadmin ' at all anymore.

I am using a mac and I have been spending hours trying to find out how to solve this problem.

It says below

'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.'

Can anyone help me?

Thanks Josh

Answer 1

Try to assign a password to root user. I believe it cannot be blank.

Answer 2

first of all it is a bad idea to delete all users from phpmyadmin (although I did the same and got a lot of problems after that). There are some solutions: try this . You find in these discussion several steps to take you back to phpmyadmin. But if you are interesting in my solution:

1. I've deleted completely xampp from my PC (All folders and files with name XAMPP). After I've searched for the rest file in the directory where I've previously installed it, and delete them as well.

2. Reinstalled the XAMPP with phpmyadmin. Done. You're good to go!
