Try it like this

What kind of authentication did you set it up to use?

Usually you will get a prompt asking for your username and password if you simply go to http://myserver.com/phpmyadmin/ ... that's for phpMyAdmin though, not sure if that's what you're using. I've heard there's something similar to it called myphpadmin, but I haven't used it before.

@ ... i tried it like this too ... no result

@all - i reinstalled mysql, php am phpmyadmin

i will leave the root password untouched until i learned more about mysql and php

If you are trying to bypass .htaccess authentication, the link I gave you will work.

It sounds like you mean you need to know how to get phpMyAdmin to connect to MySQL. Is that the case?
