Same problem. UniServer Nano 5.7.0 running from USB stick on Win7.
The start page on localhost is displayed, I can enter apanel, but I can't access PhpMyAdmin:
Errors:MySQL said: Documentation
#2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)
Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed.
Maybe a file path in configuration somewhere is incorrect?
i had this same problem with windows xp with Uniform Server 5.7.4nano- and the error MySQL said: DocumentationWith a freshly downloaded version of 5.7.1 extracted to my local drive phpmyadmin works perfectly out of the box for me.
Do you have an entry for
127.0.0.1 localhost
in your 'windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts' file?
I'm running Win 7 64 bit with firefox
#2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)
Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed.
so i asked a friend of mine to help with it you should also make sure you are using a legal version of windows or you havent used a WGA patch that was a question that was asked to me if you do it will look something like this
if it does just remove the block wga and it should work and since mine didnt have that and it still didnt work127.0.0.1 localhost
#block wga
127.0.0.1 mpa.one.microsoft.com

i let him remote to my computer and found there was 127.0.0.1 localhost and one other thing

however there is another fix he showed me that may work for you
Go To:
UniServer\home\admin\www\phpMyAdmin and open config.inc.phpLook for
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1'; // MySQL hostname or IP addressshould be line 56 or close to it
and replace with
//$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1'; // MySQL hostname or IP address $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost'; // MySQL hostname or IP addresssave and close then try to access phpmyadmin
hope this helps it worked for me
