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!

You need to add mcrypt extension to PHP configuration, dynamic loading
is usually disabled in PHP.

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';

Fist consider rather using cookie authentication which provides better
security.
Besides that, are you sure you are entering correct password?
phpMyAdmin does nothing more than connecting to the MySQL server and
passing login information to it.

Please read documentation how to use setup script.

My apologies. I'm new to all of this, so don't really know the difference
between beginner, developer, database query, "generic" or arrogant jerk to
be honest.

your password
this needs to be the user information for your MySQL server
phpMyAdmin uses the above username and password to connect to the MySQL
server - so you need to ensure MySQL has a user root with the above
password who is allowed to login from localhost
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] =
'config'
using 'cookie' as auth type is more secure, it gives you a login form
where you need to enter your MySQL credentials (username and password)
phpMyAdmin has no own authentication or privilege system - everything is
done against the MySQL server.
