I've finally got both PHP and MySQL up and running, and I've learned how
to create new users and databases (at least the basics).
But I was told I should add a password to root/localhost, and that's
been a major pain in the butt. First, it knocked out phpMyAdmin. Then I
learned how to edit a file (phpMyAdmin.config.inc, or something like
that), which restored phpMyAdmin. But I next discovered that I can no
longer create databases.
When I open up phpMyAdmin, near the top of the page is a function for
creating new databases. It now says No Privilieges, just under Create
New Database.
I tried to retrace my steps in creating a password. I clicked on
Privileges, then clicked Edit in the root/localhost row.
Then I went down to where it says Change Password, clicked the
Password radio button and typed in my password twice. I don't think I
did anything else.
So why would that knock out my databases? More important, how do I get
them back?
Thanks.
