Question

Answer 1

In MySQL creating a database doesn't automatically create a user to go with it. You must explicitly create the user and grant acess.

Answer 2

Steps for phpmyadmin GUI:

Select your Database name -> Privileges (here you can see your Privileges).

if you want change password click on the edit privileges icon in the action column

Answer 3

You can access that database with the user/password used to login on the phpMyAdmin.

You can also create new users (if you have permission to) under the tab Privileges > Add new User. Here you can create pairs of user-database with the same name and auto-permission-granting.

Answer 4

在您的情况下，您用于创建数据库的登录很可能用于访问数据库。
