sounds like you need to make sure the password in phpMyAdmin and the
MySQL for the user running the app are the same. You can reset the users
password with mysqladmin -u username password new-password and then edit
the phpMyAdmin config and make sure everything matches....also, one
small suggestion, you should run a DB admin app for anything production
or accessible that uses root, you should create or select a user and
grant them the appropriate privileges to run phpMyAdmin. This could lead
to a potential security breach on a machine thats accessible.
