you need to change the password(s) in the database itself.

e.g. with phpmyadmin

or in the commandline (cmd.exe)

ok i got cmd.exe box up so what do i put in there to change the passwords and usernames so that when i get it up and running ,no 1 can get into the database or anywhere else, oh yes i have unzipped phpmyadmin to c:\apache2\htdocs and when i go onto localhost it just comes up with a blue list like FTP

and i have read that link that you sent above but i cant understand alot of it as like i keep saying i am really new to all this lol

however i really do appreciate all this that you are doing for me and i cant wait to get a forum up and running

also when it is all done and complete, will this happen or not "if i shut down my pc the website that i make is gone until i turn the pc back on again because that what happend last time but i was using dynamic something or other so that people could get on to my site" cant remember what it was now sorry

and also i have got to be very carefull because last time i did this (but with auto installers) quite a few people got into the database because i didnt no how to change the passwords.

like i said above i am really grateful of all this so thank you very much.

p.s
9a. install phpmyadmin with the installer script in http://yourdomain.tld/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php

the link above in red dont work cheers.
so how can i install phpmyadmin thanks

Are you sure that your server parses PHP pages?

Can you open http://youdomain/phpmyadmin/ ? Did you try http://localhost/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php ?

Please create web server writable folder config in phpMyAdmin toplevel directory as described in documentation. Otherwise you will be only able to download or display it.


Quote:
Not secure connection
You are not using secure connection, all data (including sensitive, like passwords) are transfered unencrypted! If your server is also configured to accept HTTPS request follow this link to use secure connection.

Available global actions (please note that these will delete any changes you could have done above):

Servers...
ADD.

Layout...
NAVIGATION FRAME / TABS / ICONS / BROWSING / EDITING / QUERY WINDOW.

Features...

Configuration...

Apache/2.0.54 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.0.54 OpenSSL/0.9.7g PHP/4.4.0 Server at www.youdomain.com Port 80

Also i tried that link by putting a R in youRdomain so it was
http://youRdomain/phpmyadmin/

because i didnt no if you had missed the R out of the link and i got this...

hey dude, you can note use "yourydomain.com" that is only an example! if you don't have any name use only localhost as name.

http://localhost/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php outout is fine! Did you follow the setup? Made what it wanted from you?

hey man ,im totally lost now and aint got a clue what to do and if your on about the set up as in the tutorial then i got to this bit ...

After you install the service be sure to:

Secure the initial MySQL accounts MySQL access controls. Be aware that default both root and the anonymous account are set up with no password, so anyone can connect to the MySQL server as root.


but i havent got a clue what to do now and i am so wanting this to make a forum

and so your saying that this below...

http://localhost/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php

is done ok and also when i click ADD server on http://localhost/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php
i dont have a clue what to put in all the boxes lol

sorry about this

so is that were i put in a password and things mate in...

http://localhost/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php << and is that the database

also is there a easier automatic way to do all this lol cheers
