PhpMyAdmin and MySQL need a password for root - Please help
Hi. I have a RN2304. I have installed PHP, PhpMyAdmin and MySQL. Can someone please help me add or change the root password for MySQL.
I do not know how to use SSH or Putty etc etc.... Is there any other easier way via a database app or software. Im on a Mac.
Thanks in advance.

Ok I solved it but following these steps:
It's just a warning to show that there is no password for the default user root. If you want to set password for root:
- Open phpmyadmin interface
- Click "Users" tab
- Select user "root"
- Edit Privileges
- Change password
