Are there any known program conflicts that would prevent wampserver localhost from opening a web page? Error message http error 404

Thanks - that worked!

Got following message when trying to open MySQL server.
Error

MySQL said: Documentation
#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.

As a new user I don't know where to go to fix this.

If NO is the password then I did but I have no memory of doing it it must be a default setting. I've been tring to get around this error message but really don't know how.

Hi Steven,

Got on line this morning and was unable to access localhost = same problem I started off with yesterday. I believe it has something to do with port 80 which I use for Skype.
I closed Skype like yesterday but to no success.

Hi Steve,

I can't seem to stop fooling with my server and am in trouble again after assigning a password to root localhost.

I can log in to MySQL console with the password but the database now is disconnected fro my web site and as a result I can't connect to the site.

so i solved the problem with the change if password by going to c/wamp/phpmyadmin3.5.1/config.inc.php and entering the password and leaving allownopassword as true.
So now I can get into phpmyadmin but still can't access WordPress site - I get error establishing a database connection message
