[Phpmyadmin-devel] question (problems logging into phpMyAdmin)
by Paul Westmoreland 08 Feb '10

08 Feb '10

Hello, I'm new to using phpMyAdmin and am having trouble logging in. I'm wondering if someone can help me. I have successfully installed phpMyAdmin on my server (linux, has all the requisite stuff needed to run everything) but i get this error: #1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) (also this one: Cannot load mcrypt extension. Please check your PHP configuration.) i tried the documented suggestion: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'cbb74bc'; // use here your password $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config' by putting in my own password with root as the login and got same error. also tried $cfg['Servers'][$i]['nopassword'] and generating a script using phpMyAdmin/setup/ which also didn't allow login. i created a "config" folder under phpMyAdmin and dropped the config.inc.php into that, and also dropped it into /setup/frames/ with the various attempts and that didn't work either does anyone know how to fix? thanks!

[Phpmyadmin-devel] question (newbie to www.phpmyadmin.net)
by Paul Westmoreland 06 Feb '10

Hello, I'm sorry to post such a basic question, but I hope one of you can help me with something. I have created a demo database at www.phpmyadmin.net. It has a database > table > records etc and everything looks good on that end. I am running a browser .pl script to read the database, from a different web server/different url. In my script, I am trying to log into the database to read it, and I keep getting "Unknown MySQL server host" - but to me it looks like it should go through. The database host is: my [dollar sign]dbhost = 'http://demo.phpmyadmin.net/trunk/index.php'; The database is: my [dollar sign]dbname = '[my_database_name]'; The login is: $dblogin= 'root'; Pass is: my $dbpass = ''; (i leave this empty) To me it looks like it should work, but it isn't and I keep getting the error. Can someone help me figure out what's wrong? If for some reason, the demo site doesn't let me run scripts from an outside server to query a demo db, then is there a place on the demo site where I can run the .pl script against the db? Thanks!
