...
help me out..
btw whch password do i have to use??i dnt have any user acc pwd..

I was scared after doing this that even after changing the config file phpmyadmin would still give me a error. If that’s the problem, close your browser, open a fresh one and type it again, a login screen for phpmyadmin will show up and you can type root as the username and password as the password, thanks!

I had the same problem.
I reset the user password to another one and then, again to the correct one. That's resolved for me !

If you have access to your cPanel, 1)go and click your Database creation icon, 2)Add a new user and new password 3)Add User to database(old db) with "All Privileges" in so doing you're trying to link back to the same database with password that didn't work, this time with a New User and password.

mere pc me f drive ke folder open nahi ho rahe he,open karu to access denied likha aa jata he,pleaz help meeeeeeeee FRIEND

Use username as "Root" and password as "password you set for while installing mySql" and things should work.

if you forgotton the password use "mysqladmin -u root password ANy_PASSWORD" to reset the password.

I am having the same problem. I am dead new to MySQL. I can get into the command line client because I guessed my password but I do not know what my user ID is. Since I can create databases I am a root user. I have 10 yrs with Oracle but that does not help me here. I am using MySQL 5.1. I am actually trying to log in with Toad so I can manage the database with a GUI. I am hoping I am not getting the user ID correct. I don't know what table contains the user info.

if you are the root or administrator of the server all you have to do is send this command to set the root password:



NOTE: WHATEVER_PASSWORD is whatever password you want to set for you sql

where do i have to paste that?

That's great and all, I'm glad someone could read between the lines of code, but as for us newbies...can we get a step-by-step on how to update the password in the database?

can someone teach me how to solve this problem.....
plz tell me step by step.....help help help.....urgent....thank you...

it just means your username or password is incorrect, try login in with phpmyadmin to test it out

hi, can you help me, i need to know why i keep getting this error?

got error: 1045: access denied for user 'user' at 'localhost' (using password: yes) when trying to connect to database

is the sql server on your local machine, or on a server on the internet? are you using a class file, or are you just scripting everything by hand?

you are getting this error because your script cannot connect to your database with the information you have provided.

Access denied for user 'user'@'localhost' (using password: YES) when trying to connect to database

Make sure you have the correct username and password, if you are sure you have the correct login and pasword, then you need to check with your administrator because you defenetly have either the wrong login or password and that's why your script cannot connect to your mysql database.

check these four things to make sure you have them right:

1. your hostname (usually is "localhost")
2. your database username (not your hosting username, BUT your mysql)
3. Your database password
4. Your database name

if you still cannot login, contact www.webune.com to reset your password.

Just suffered from this on optware/tomatousb - apparently for this enivornment (and maybe in general?) the default or administrator mysql username is Root, but unless you use -u option with mysqladmin it uses the current logged in user, i.e. root, and so it doesn't work...

Solution: command is
mysqladmin -u root status
which works. Hurray.

I was scared after doing this that even after changing the config file phpmyadmin would still give me a error. If that&#x2019s the problem, close your browser, open a fresh one and type it again, a login screen for phpmyadmin will show up and you can type root as the username and password as the password, thanks!

i also having this problem but i have solved,u must give in the start insatallation user is "root" & dnt give any password,koz by default no password,im sure you will have found no error
