WampServer

I just downloaded and installed wampserver, its running, and when i try to CREATE DATABASE; i get the following error:


ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'mysql'

Can anyone help with this? i dont recall any username or password setup during the installation, and i am the admn on my pc where i have wampserver running.

Thanks

open up c:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin.10/config.inc.php

find this


$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config'; // Authentication method (config, http or cookie based)?
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = ''; // MySQL user
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = ''; // MySQL password (only needed


and chnage it to

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config'; // Authentication method (config, http or cookie based)?
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root'; // MySQL user
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = ''; // MySQL password (only needed


then save it and try again

once your in , you should set a password in mysql by pressng privledges.

then go bac into the file above and key in ur password
