wrathican Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 hey i just installed wamp5 and i am a complete n00b to mysql. when i looked at phpmyAdmin it told me this: Your configuration file contains settings (root with no password) that correspond to the default MySQL privileged account. Your MySQL server is running with this default, is open to intrusion, and you really should fix this security hole. how do i add a user and change it so that the root user has a password or something?
