steven rowlands Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Hi all, I'm a newbie to php. i've installed wamp5 and all seem to be running well. when i set up a site in dreamweaver in the wwwroot folder and make the local host connection everything is fine; i can preview php files no probs. But when i try to connect to mysql database it prompts me for a password which i don't seem to remember setting up. i have created a mysql database with some tables in it, but i can't seem to connect. it would make sense that i do need a password, but where do i set this up?

wildteen88 Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 You use the same username/password combination you used in order to login to MySQL and to create your tables. By default MySQL creates a user called root with no password set when MySQL is installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
