phpmyadmin error

Post by dsick »

Cannot connect: invalid settings.
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 changed the password of my root user, then next time i went into PHPMYADMIN it through up this message


also when i create fields in my tables, and say i have a field called username it seems not to work untill i say "username" or 'username'

Hi,
Recently I had configured Web server with PHP under Fedora core. Everything was working fine except the installation of phpMyAdmin, reported an error as follows:
The mbstring PHP extension was not found and you seem to be using a multibyte charset. Without the mbstring extension phpMyAdmin is unable to split strings correctly and it may result in unexpected results.
Following command helped me to find out the exact package name:
# yum search mbstring
Following command installed the package php-mbstring.i386 for fedora core 4:
# yum install php-mbstring.i386
Do not forget to restart web server.
