Phpmyadmin not working

Post by coder500 »

I have installed wamp server.
When I try to access phpmyadmin the following error comes :
------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.

Error
MySQL said:

#2005 - Unknown MySQL server host 'localhost:8080' (11001)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any help will be very much appreciated...
Thanks

It appears you specified the http alternate port in your mysql host name. Try using localhost (without the 8080).
