WampServer

i have installed wamp on my computer and when i access phpmyadmin i get the following error

#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

i already have xampp installed on my computer, i want to learn smarty templates so i am using wamp for the sake of learning smarty, i do not want to install smarty on xampp as it is already configured with other settings so i would like to use wamp

i am using windows xp service pack 2

i have chaned the port to 81 in the httpd.conf configuration file of wamp and changed server name to localhost:81 so i access wamp as
[localhost] this works fine, from this page when i click on phpmyadmin link i get the error

#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

i have followed the steps from the following links

[forum.wampserver.com]
[forums.macosxhints.com]


i have tried stopping all services and restarted wamp service however i am not able to access phpmyadmin but i am able to access wamp as
[localhost] and any files i create in the wamp/www folder

please advice.

thanks

Hi, you can look in your phpmyadmin config and your mysql config files and see if a password is specified there. I would probably just reinstall wampserver. Should not be any problems accessing phpmyadmin if your install goes correctly. To reinstall is pretty quick and easy. Obviously, you'd want to save your /www directory and export any DBs and tables.

You should use this thread instead : [forum.wampserver.com]
