WampServer

hi:
I am using wamp 1.6.3. when i change the password of 'root. Then try to login
into phpMyAdmin by typing (http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XX/phpmyadmin/)
It give the message " acess denied.....".

But someone told me, there is a "login in mesasge box" for me to enter the "userid"
& "password", but i can not see it. why ?

See the phpmyadmin doc, you've got to modifiy your config.inc.php to use the http method for authentication.

no, do not change any authentication setting in the phpmyadmin config file. after you change your root users password, you need to restart apache and mysql for the new password settings to take effect. then you need to update the phpmyadmin config file to use your new password.

open config.inc.php file:
C:\wamp\phpmyadmin\config.inc.php

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

change it to:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'Your_New_Password_Here';

thanks for the answers, but i don't want everyone to login in "phpmyadmin" without enter any passwords. It is not safe enough.

How can i achieve that.

open up your config.ini.php file again, and find:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';

change to
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';
