PHPMyAdmin Default login password [closed]

I have done a fresh installation of Fedora 14 and installed the phpMyAdmin module. When I run phpMyAdmin, it asks me for a username and password.

What is the default username and password for phpMyAdmin?


Default is:

Username: root

Password: [null]

The Password is set to 'password' in some versions.


I just installed Fedora 16 (yea, I know it's old and not supported but, I had the CD burnt :) )

Anyway, coming to the solution, this is what I was required to do:

su -
gedit /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php

if not found... try phpmyadmin - all small caps.

gedit /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

Locate

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword']

and set it to:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = TRUE;

Save it.


This is asking for your MySQL username and password.

You should enter these details, which will default to "root" and "" (i.e.: nothing) if you've not specified a password.


If it was installed with plesk (not sure if it's just that, or on the phpmyadmin side: It changes the root user to admin.
