Reset MySQL root password to “default” - MAMP

Question

I changed my root level password on phpMyAdmin. I was unsure where to enter the password itself, as it did not give me the option (login form). I wondered if it was the php.ini

Answer 1

This seemed to have fixed it when using terminal to reset the password:

/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password newpassword
