I'm trying to get mysql to work using this sheet as a guideline:
http://home.cogeco.ca/~ebelec/mysql.jpg
However, at STEP 4, of that guide (going to
http://localhost/phpmyadmin/index.php) I get the following error.
Quote:
Welcome to phpMyAdmin 2.5.6
phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in config.inc.php and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.
Error
MySQL said:
#2003 - Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

okay, easy right? I need to match the password and usernames. However, I went to the file "config.inc" and added a username and password:
$cfg['SQLValidator']['username'] = 'root'; // If you have a custom username, specify it here (defaults to anonymous)
$cfg['SQLValidator']['password'] = '-------'; // Password for username
Is there something else that I have to change so that I don't get the error above?
I really need help on configuring this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
