June 17, 200520 yr comment_945 I was connecting fine to my database using root as the password and user. I edited the \home\admin\www\mysql_password file. Now I can not connect to my database, even if I try to change it back... Report
June 17, 200520 yr comment_946 As soon as you change the root username in the mysql_password file, that is the new password. So it has to be root/ and not root/root. Make sure you do not chnage it elsewhere also... only in the mysql_password file. Hope this helps.. Best Regards Olajide Olaolorun The Uniform Server Development Team Report
February 15, 200620 yr comment_2549 It is also important to make sure your text editor does not add a Windows/DOS line terminator (0x0D0A) to the mysql_password file. It took me quite a while last night to figure this out the hard way. Also read the post by Yofazza in the topic "What is the mySQL password". phpMyAdmin is an excellent program and the Uniform Server is a great package. Report
