Ninjakreborn Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Not too long ago I installed wamp, on a windows server. It's not until later, I realized my mysql system wasn't password protected, so I can't connect to it from php at all. I need to figure out how to password protect mysql databases, and setup user privileges directly. Anyone know how, I know of one file I found related to mysql after the installed, and all that was, is my.ini after researching that and other methods, ntohing told me how to do this. Any advice would be appreciated? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/33641-password-protect-mysql/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninjakreborn Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 Yes, I just discovered this morning, I was thinking mysql there was something you needed to do inside mysql server to password protect it. However I did it with phpmyadmin, so the problem was taken care of this morning, thanks.

wildteen88 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 When MySQL gets installed it sets up a default user 'root' with no password set. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/33641-password-protect-mysql/#findComment-159278 Share on other sites More sharing options...
