Answer 1

You might need to change the password in the PPHMyAdmin config-db.php file.

Answer 2

Go to phpMyAdmin folder (in my case it is C:\wamp\apps\phpmyadmin3.2.0.1). In the file config.inc.php change the line

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config'

to

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie'

Now the password will be asked on your first visit of the phpMyAdmin page

Answer 3

you have to change the database password value in C:\wamp\apps\phpmyadmin3.4.5\config.inc.php into your MySQL database password

ex:- $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'yourMySQLpassword';

Answer 4

Simply, clear your cache and refresh the page. That should help you out!
