Just installed phpmyadmin and wanted to create a user.
typed in mysql -u root -p and when I typed in the password generated during the install of mysql i get the Access denied message.
If i callup phpmyadmin on my browser I can sign on with user phpmyadmin and that same password and it's valid.
i used the same password for the install of mysql and phpmyadmin. Is this wrong?
