WampServer

The easiest way for me to explain this is:


Think the prob might have come about following a tut that wasn't relavent but i didn't realise till it was too late. I have tried to retrace all the steps from this tut but maybe im missing something.

here's the tutorial: [subliminalconfusion.net]

If some1 could help me out here, ill <3 u long time, np!

Having trobble with following your tutorial:

then type as belows, remember case is sensitive:
SET PASSWORD FOR root@localhost=PASSWORD('your_new_password');

Its give ERROR 1064 you have an error in sql syntax..

Say for EXAMPLE my password was betty, would it be:
SET PASSWORD FOR root@localhost=PASSWORD(betty);

^^cause thats what im doing and its giving the error..

2. For second place, set password in config.inc.php in /wamp/phpmyadmin.
Find and put your password in this line:
$cfg<'Servers'><$i><'password'> = 'your_new_password'; // MySQL password (only

It can't find that line.. and I can't go to the phpMyAdmin: ''from your Browser/Localhost''

any sugestions?

First, you have to undo any password setup you did in order to get in the normal phpmyadmin

Second, if you decide to use mysql command instead phpmyadmin, you have to open mysql consol through wamp tray icon, not from a regular cmd prompt

Third, config.inc.php is a file which you can open with any text editor and that file locates in folder c:/wamp/phpmyadmin. If you can't find config.inc.php, but only see config.inc which is the correct file for editting; you can only see it as config.inc.php after you disable "Hide known extension" in windows

BTW, you will only see this line:
$cfg<'Servers'><$i><'password'> = ''; // MySQL password (only

And you have to input your password to become:
$cfg<'Servers'><$i><'password'> = 'your_new_password'; // MySQL password (only

How would I go about doing that if I am unable to go to the phpmyadmin page? Because thats where I 1st tried to set a passowrd?

Sorry dude, please bear with me here..

The easiest way is to backup all your data, if any, unistall that wamp, delete folder wamp, then follow step-by-step guide w/ illustrated pics on my website to setup wamp, password, so on

BTW, you can download wamp and all official wamp add-on from my site here:

I am having exactly the same problem and I have followed all the advice above :-( If you manage to get it sorted please post solution on forum, likewise I will do the same. If I don't get it sorted soon I might throw my PC out the window!!

Did you try to follow step-by-step guide w/ illustrated pics on my site as suggested?

BTW, if you really throw computer, show me the place so I could come to pick it up; just kidding ;-) since I have more than enough (3dt + 1lt so far), and I just built my core 2 quad Q6600 w/ 1TB hd, 4 GB DD2 800, dual dvd burner and 8400GS video card for less than $350

A friend made my signature for me on my local warcraft server, sure he would make you one.. if you intrested go to:

[www.war3.co.za]

I sugest you read the section 1st because the get agro..

ask CyBeRmAn, he's almost gifted

Na, had this nick for like 4 years, named myself after a dj group called Nightwatchmen..

In order to have a fresh installation again, almost, do these:

1. Uninstall wamp
2. Delete wamp folder
3. Delete wampapache and wampmysql in registry
4. Reinstall wamp

BTW, thanks for for the link; I might try to request one since I can setup, codes, so on but very bad in design

Hi again, I uninstalled everything and re-installed it again and chose Firefox as the default browser and it works perfectly now :-)

Congratulation!!!

Now head to my websites for some other basic setup such as password, so on

Had everything working this morning after re-installing.. but after i edited the httpd-vhosts I can't view phpadmin page and [localhost] isn't working aswell.

When I do this step:

"Now open httpd-vhost.conf and search for this line:
#NameVirtualHost *:80

Change it to this:
NameVirtualHost your.ip.address.here:80
NameVirtualHost your.ip.address.here:81
NameVirtualHost your.ip.address.here:8080..'.:

Do I just copy all of it and past where NameVirtualHost *:80 was? and leave everything else there, only erasing ''NameVirtualHost *:80''?

EDIT!!!

OMG nvm Im so stupid, where it said your.ip.here >.< I didn't fill in!

ta, everything is tops now! yay

*puts down the gun and razor blades*

ta for the help man
