WampServer

Hello

I didn't have this problem before but when I installed WAMP on a fresh copy of windows and when I wanted to open phpmyadmin, this screen appeared: [shrani.si] <---- click

Why? Why didn't I have this before? Is this new version or something? How can I login?

bumping for explanation

you modified the config.inc.php and told it to displat

Like I wrote earlier Steven, I didn't modify anything because I installed wamp straight on to the new copy of windows on formatted disc!

Now, how can I fix this?

in the config.inc.php

is this the latest version of wamp that was only released? i havent checked it out yet


open c:\wamp\apps\phpmyadmin\config.inc.php


search for

cookie

and change it to

config

Haha! That did it, thank you Steven. Though I do receive this messages on the bottom of the phpmyadmin screen: "The phpMyAdmin configuration storage is not completely configured, some extended features have been deactivated. To find out why click here."

and

"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 by setting a password for user 'root'."

And yes this is the latest version, when was it released? Because maybe this is due to changes in the latest version. But wouldn't that mean that a lot of people have the same problem?

The other two warning are normal.

you should set a password and you dont need to worry about the other warning as you wont need the feature its talking about

Thanks so much Steven! I thought that I need those advanced features.

Do I just add a new user and set password there? Won't that cause another login screen?

delete all the users in phpmyadmin except for "root" "localhost"

then edit that user and add a password


in the config.inc.php add your password to the password= '';

Sorry Steven but in config.inc there is no line that says "password= '';" and now I can't log in to phpmyadmin it reads: "#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)"

Where can I set my password?

add a line then

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = '';

I added the line

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = '0701';

0701 is my password... I get the message " Invalid server index: " can I add that line anywhere in the ini file?

paste the file - it must be different to 2.2

Nevermind I solved it, I added the line under the right code. Thanks for all the help
