Getting phpMyAdmin error
MySQL said: Documentation
#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.
I am using book 'Drupal 7' Tom Geller.
I installed
WampServer 2.1a [24/12/10]
Includes :
- Apache 2.2.17
- Php 5.3.3
- Mysql 5.5.8 (version 32 bits)
- PhpMyadmin 3.2.0.1
- SQLBuddy 1.3.2
Everything was working ok when there were no passwords.
Yesterday as per pg 16 I added a database and gave it a password. I can guess at the name but am not sure. I think I used an underline. Is there anyway of finding the database name?
There were three lines on the phpMyAdmin that said I needed to add a password which I did.
No I cannot get into phpMyAdmin. I have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple time to no avail. I get
Welcome to phpMyAdmin
Error

I have looked at correction action on the web, and tried it, rebooted, etc, all resulting in same error.
How do I either unset root passwords or move forward?
I read it was not a good idea to put passwords in .ini files so I don't know what to.
I have an IT background but haven't done development for quite some time, so this is new to me.
Thanks
