I had the same issue when I installed the rpm.  Its real simple you have
entered the wrong password, if you entered the password found in
/root/.my.cnf to the /opt/administration/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php file
and it gives you the MySQL Connection Failed: Access denied for user:
'root@localhost' (Using
password: YES) then the password in the  /root/.my.cnf file is not your
root mysql password.  If you have ever changed the password by entering
this command 

> mysqladmin -u root password
> mynewpassword

then the root mysql password is whatever you changed it to, therefore it
will not be what is displayed in the /root/.my.cnf file.

Darrell,

I just got around to trying out phpmyadmin, but I get a connection
failure
from MySQL, i.e.:

        MySQL Connection Failed: Access denied for user:
'root@localhost' (Using
password: YES)

I followed your instructions to the letter except I did not install the
.src.rpm, just the .noarch.rpm. Is that OK?

As instructed, I logged in as "admin", and when this failed (and not
being
quite sure of what I'm doing :-) I also added "admin" as a user in the
MySQL
user table, but that didn't seem to help.

Regards,
Mark
Ottawa.
