Answer 1

If you can not authenticate via the web interface (localhost/phpmyadmin/) then try change authentication type to cookie.

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';

Answer 2

If all the other answers do not work for you check the config.inc.php for the following:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1';

…and add the port of MySQL set in your XAMPP as shown below:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1:3307';

Stop MySQL from XAMPP and restart MySQL.

Open a fresh page for http://localhost:8012/phpmyadmin/ and check.

password: [blank]

Answer 5

Find the below code in xampp/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser']  = 'user_name/root';   
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass']  = 'passwaord';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type']    = 'config';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user']         = 'user_name/root';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password']     = 'password';

Replace each statement above with the corresponding entry below:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser']  = 'root';   
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass']  = 'xxxx';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type']    = 'config';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user']         = 'root';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password']     = 'xxxx';

Doing this caused localhost/phpmyadmin in the browser and the MySQL command prompt to work properly.
