How to connect with mysql server…?

Question

Hello friends I'd installed WAMP server and I changed root password and now it is saying that. Can't connect to SQL server password or username is wrong.

Answer 1

After changing MySQL password you need to set the password in config.inc.php of phpMyAdmin because the default root password is "" (empty). So now goto

C:\\wamp\\phpmyadmin\\ directory and open config.inc.php in any text editor and find out

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root'; // MySQL user
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = ''; // MySQL password change this with new password

After that save and exit from text editor. Now restart your Wamp Server and try to access MySQL through phpMyAdmin.
