How to find out the username and password for mysql database

Question

I\'ve forgotten what I set as username and password for mysql database. How could I be able to find it out? I am using wamp server. I am a newbie in mysql

Answer 1

Go to this file in: WampFolder\apps\phpmyadmin[phpmyadmin version]\config.inc.php

Usually wamp is in your main hard drive folder C:\wamp\

You will see something like:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'YOUR USER NAME IS HERE';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'AND YOU PASSWORD IS HERE';

Try using the password and username that you have on that file.
