Access Denied when opening phpMyAdmin

Question

What could be the problem of my mysql database server in WAMP.

I can\'t open it. The error says:

MySQL sai         


        

Answer 1

I installed MySQL stand-alone (not using any XAMPP/WAMP stack) and got this problem some time ago. I just ran the following command in windows command prompt:

C:\>"C:\mysql\bin\mysqld" --console

where "C:\mysql\" is the installation directory (adjust the path according to your own case). The

  --console

displays the process for debugging purposes.

After startup, you should see something like:

C:\mysql\bin\mysqld: ready for connections
Version: '5.7.10'  socket: ''  port: 3306
