[X-Unix] MySQL and PhpMyAdmin

[Craig Hoffman]

Hi There,
I have a strange problem with MySQL and PhpMyAdmin.  I installed MySQL  
(latest version -- package install), then installed PhpMyAdmin (latest  
version) on a Macbook.   The install went fine and everything worked.   
I logged in MySQL via PhpMyAdmin to change the root password.  I also  
added the new root password to PhpMyAdmin config file.  Restarted  
MySQL.  Now PhpMyAdmin is telling me "Access denied for user  
"root" (using password: Yes).  I've checked several times the password  
and its correct in both PhpMyAdmin and MySQL.  What's strange is I can  
log into MySQL via command with the new root password  and it works  
fine.

Any thoughts?
