Never Mind - I got it - #1045 - Access denied - WAMP


Recommended Posts

I went into the config.inc.php file in phpMyAdmin, added the password and changed 'AllowNoPassword' to false.

 

This is all on my local, and running on WAMP:

 

In phpMyAdmin I was attempting to add a password to 'root'. For some reason, there were two 'root' users. I'd added another user (me) with full privileges. When I thought I was adding a password for the other 'root' user, I suddenly got:

 

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

 

And I can't get back in to phpMyAdmin to do anything.

 

What do I do?
