@2daygeek, here is the error message. It is inside my first post,
Error
MySQL said: Documentation
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.
@Guru,
Can you please make the below change
from ($cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘auth_type’] = ‘config’;) to $cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘auth_type’] = ‘cookie’;
Also make sure you should update correct password.
$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘password’] = ‘password’;
Hi,
I am getting error on my phpMyAdmin online GUI webpage. When I go to

The only change I did is that I upgraded from MariaDB 5.5 to MariaDB 10.1 just recently. I tried root username and password. It did not work. I tried every step. I even changed the root allow without password inside config.inc.php file. It did not work. Any suggestions as to How can I fix this. I am using opensuse 13.1 and mariadb 10.1
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance 🙂 I have been trying to solve this for 3 weeks.
@Guru,
Before upgrade this was work fine? if so, Can I have the screenshot of error message.
A good tutorial, thank you very much!
@Darko,
Glad to hear, welcome.
Hi
Great article helped a lot.
One point you can just use yast and put ‘lamp’ in the file search bar, much quicker.

@Allen,

Just a little comment: At the end of 4., you want to open localhost/phpinfo.php (the file that was just created), not localhost/index.php
