Hi everyone,

I need little help with setting extended features in wamp server.
What I have done already:

- I have set up database phpmysql and I imported script create_tables.sql
- I set up control user for this database with login and password
- I modified file config.inc.php with appropriate information concerning database phpmysql and control user
- I restarted all services

And now I have difficulty because there is an error message:

"Connection for control user defined in configuration file have failed"

Please could you give me a hint what do I need to improve?

I will be appreciate for help.

Chris,

Ok minor problem. Revert your config.inc.php back to its original state.

phpMyAdmin is a MySQL admin script, and as such should be run with an admin account (root unless you have added another admin account) so it has rights to do anything to any database.

The login/password you setup for your tutorial/application is for the use of the tutorial/application so it can access only your new database and have the limited but required privilages it needs to do its db access.
