coder500 Posted September 4, 2008 Author Share Posted September 4, 2008 Yes. I already have IIS on my server. It is on port 80. So I changed port of wampserver to 8080.

Thanks PHPMyAdmin is configured incorrectly. PHPMyadmin is trying to connect to your MySQL server via port 8080. Port 8080 is only for your HTTP server (Apache). MySQL runs on port 3306, this is the port PHPMyAdmin should use for connecting to MySQL. I know earlier I suggested you to change the port WAMP uses to 8080 as you have IIS installed. But did you make any further changes other than what I told you? Can you post your PMA configuration here.

coder500 Posted September 5, 2008 Author Share Posted September 5, 2008 I reinstalled wampserver. The present situation is as follows. After installing wampserver I edited Apache--- httpd.conf file and set Listen to port 8080. Since there was My Sql already in my system and it is using port 3306 I edited MySql---my.ini and changed the port 3307. Could you please tell me where is the configuration file of phpmyadmin. C:/Wamp/www contains only an index file, no other files or directories there.

Zane Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 go back a directory......there should be a folder called apps it's pretty straight forward after that and the conf file for phpmyadmin is callled config.inc.php I think Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/122680-solved-phpmyadmin-not-working/#findComment-634353 Share on other sites More sharing options...
