A password isnt really needed as you wont access phpmyadmin from outside your own network. try not filling in a password in config.php and using root as username.Yes, I am! I have Apache and MySQL running from the Control Panel.
Ah, just got onto localhost/phpmyadmin and I didn't see this (didn't realise I could scroll down on the homepage) it says: "You are connected as 'root' with no password, which corresponds to the default MySQL privileged account. Your MySQL server is running with this default, is open to intrusion, and you really should fix this security hole by setting a password for user 'root'." My password has both characters and numbers, should I try with just characters? Thanks for all your help so far
