WampServer

I have a serious problem setting up the password for 'root' within MySQL. This is right after an initial setup of wamp server. I have attempted to change the password within PHPMyAdmin as well as changing the password within the MySQL console. As soon as I save the password and refresh the PHPMyAdmin webpage I receive the following error: My SQL said: #1045 – access denied four user ‘root’@’ local host’ (using password: NO)
I have made sure that the all of the environment variables have been set up properly, along with making sure that the required extensions are loaded within the PHP.INI file.
I am presently running:
Zen Cart Ver 1.3.8 Initial Install with no No Addons and installed Locally
OS - Windows 7 64-Bit, and tried VISTA virtual OS
Using Wamp 2.0
Php Ver 5.3.0
Mysql Ver. 5.1.36
Apache Ver. 2.2.11

An immediate response would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

maybe u shud try actually adding your password from mysql to phpmyadmin


all you did was set a password for mysql


now phpmyadmin cant connect to mysql

so open

c:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

add your password to the appropriate line and restart

phpMyAdmin needs to be configured to use the new password you setup. Go to C:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin

Find a file called config.inc.php and find the following line

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

Add your password between the quotes. Personally I prefer phpmyadmin to ask for username/password. If you wish phpmyadmin to ask for username/password simply find this line

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';

And change config to http or set it to cookie

Save config.inc.php and phpmyadmin should return to function normally.

My Goodness!!!!!!!
