if you setup your development environment with no mysql root password
after you setup phpmyadmin package it will land you with this error
Login without a password is forbidden by configuration (see AllowNoPassword)
to fix this error vi /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
find line : 96 ” /* $cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘AllowNoPassword’] = TRUE;”
remove the comment /*
$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘AllowNoPassword’] = TRUE;
now you will be able to login without password
