pHiLix

got it working installed the latest version of phpMyAdmin, version 2.6.2 and it worked. thanks for the help olajideolaolorun

nah, i havent changed any passwords. my copy of phpMyAdmin is old, its the version that came with Uniserver 3.2 i think. i will download the latest version and see how it goes. what MySQL? Uniserver you mean? as i mentioned in my previous post, i only installed "Uniserver 3.2" and nothing else.

i have this exact same problem as well. i clicked on "run MySQL Server" first then clicked on "PhpMyAdmin" and it still gives me this error. but when i try to stop the MySQL server, it says that the server was not running so that means it was never running at the start even though i clicked on "run MySQL Server"? what is going on here? is there anything else i forgot to install? because i just download uniserver 3.2 and ran it, nothing else. i really need some help to get PhpMyAdmin running, its for an assignment i have to do thanks in advance guys.
