I have downloaded and unzipped Uniform Server 3.5

I have changed nothing.

When I run Server_Start.bat everything appears to work perfectly with the exception of MySQL.

If I click on phpMyAdmin from the admin panel, I get this:

QUOTE

Error
MySQL said:
#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

If I attempt to change the MySQL password via the admin panel, I get this:

QUOTE

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in W:\home\admin\www\mqsetup.php on line 46
Error connecting to mysql

I cannot login via command line with "W:\usr\local\mysql\bin\mysql -uroot -proot" because I get the following:

QUOTE

ERROR 1045 (28000) Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

I'm at a loss as to how I can get MySQL working. I have no competing installation of MySQL on my box. This is a completely fresh copy of Uniform Server, out of the box.

my 'mysql_password' file says 'root' in it. It appears that's what the system things is correct...

Well, something was conflicting with it. I tried to install MySQL standalone and it also was unable to connect--until I killed and restarted all mysql and apache related services.

Now it works great. Yay! I love Uniform Server

Same problem here, but not so lucky =(

Tried all the stuff described here, but even if I kill all mysql processes and restarted, i'm unable to access to phpMyadmin

WHY?! sigh sob

By the way: I'm using Uniform Server for 3-4 months. It's awsome, simple and great, but this thing happened suddenly (yesterday it worked!)
