 * I have a local server environment set up through Wampserver. After I installed
   a copy of WordPress in my local environment, it no longer lets me access phpmyadmin.
 * This is the error I get when visiting [http://localhost/phpmyadmin](http://localhost/phpmyadmin)
 * > Error
   > MySQL said: Documentation
   >  #1045 – Access denied for user ‘root’@’localhost’(

 * It worked perfectly fine before installation (obviously, since I had to create
   the database :P) and my WordPress DOES work so the database is fine, but I can’t
   directly access phpmyadmin.
 * Any thoughts on how to fix it?
