You might want to use setup script <http://localhost/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php> to create one. #1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) ##### It can't be more verbose than that... So, you do have MySQL installed, you've setup a password for it, and for some reason (probably a lack of a config file, as PHPMyAdmin told you) PHPMyAdmin tries to connect to mysql without a password, and its kicked in the butt by trying. You could try running the script it told you (setup.php) to let PHPMyAdmin know that you must provide a password to MySQL. You can also run the console application (mysql or mysql.exe) using "mysql -u root -p", provide your password and login, but that will not solve PHPMyAdmin, you MUST configure it. You can also login and reset your password, so PHPMyAdmin will log you in without a password and you can change your passwd from the Web Interface. You can also take a look at the MySQL Manual for a way to reset your password in case you can't login using console. -- Daniel da Veiga Computer Operator - RS - Brazil -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GCM/IT/P/O d-? s:- a?
