I have an issues installing cs-cart on local enviroment, these are the errors:
MySQL settings are not valid
Could not connect to database
I've created a database named cart - and this is the name that I write in the MySQL database name from the installation wizard.
I've created an username and a password for this username - both are filled in correctly.
I have some when I open PhpMyAdmin -
A newer version of phpMyAdmin is available and you should consider upgrading. The newest version is 4.4.14.1, released on 2015-09-08.
The phpMyAdmin configuration storage is not completely configured, some extended features have been deactivated. Find out why.
Or alternately go to 'Operations' tab of any database to set it up there.
I use XAMPP.
Any thoughts on how can I solve this?
Did you check your config.local.php in the CS-Cart root dir? That file stores your MySQL database configuration.
I ran into the same issue here. I first tried adding my own username with no luck. Next I tried root#localhost after reading here on SF. Then finally, I tried with username as just: root and it worked. Install was not very intuitive. Anyways, I hope this helps someone else.

I didn't get option to set root password of mysql during installation. Now, I am unable to form instance I am beginner in mysql I have tried reinstallating the software watching youtube still didn't got that option.
Actually I had solved this problem the day after posting this question.. My main problem was I was not getting wizard for saving information regarding root password port and etc. I figured after installing quite a few time that I have been clicking on update before the actual product installation as that was first question before installing... Not having previous verison of mysql I was unable to get root wizard i.e I was able to install product but while create database or server I was having trouble with password because it was not set while installation process... Clicking on no before installation for update solved my issue
This might be useful if you have installed mySql community server.
Download MySQL Installer from here if you haven't already, then open the installer and you might see some products listed in the section, then click on reconfigure of mySQL Server, it will take you through the instructions of setting up few things including your password(which you'll probably find after clicking "next" a few windows).
I was recently assigned to administer our own webserver hosted locally. And I accidentally deleted some files in my mysql folder using an FTP client that causes to can't access the myphpadmin or can access mySQL. OS use s CEntos7 and previous mySQL is version 5 something. To no avail in accessing and cant find solution I resorted to removing the sql instance and installing a fresh copy of mySQL80 community release.
I already tried this solution but still to no avail. Yes, I've changed the password and still cant login even I view the root#localhost authentication_string to see to it if the string was change to new password.
Is there any other way to resolve this problem? I'm planning to remove the mysql instance and reinstall it again. Thank in advance for any help.
I am importing a mysql database from the webserver to my local system for a migration from drupal 6 to drupal 8.
I did an Export with phpmyadmin on the server. Then I created the database locally also with phpmyadmin and imported my dump from the server via phpmyadmin's import function.
Then I created the user with the setting of my drupal 6 configuration.
I can see the database in phpmyadmin if I connect with my local root user.
I cannot connect with the user created from the settings ( lets call that the drupal_db_user)
If I call the drupal site on my local apache ( apache & mysql server are running or my phpmyadmin would not work) I get the messeage from drupal:
"The mysqli error was: Unknown database 'my_drupal_db'."
Via Mysqlworkbench I am also not able to conntect to the my_drupal_db with the drupal_db_user.
I use locally php 5.6 and mysql 5.6 on a ubuntu system.
Creating the user and db via mysql console also did not help.
Any clue what might be wrong here? I suspect it could be the password encryption, but I have no clue how to check / change that other than trying the two options phpmyadmin (version 4.6) is offering me.
I guess you dont need to backup on your pc as the files that you exported from server is a backup on its own. Just download the sql file update to drupal 8 and finally import the file and you should have it installed.
Or simply try importing the exported file from server to another subdomain drupal 8 as a test. To check If it really works.
Found the problem.
after at least 3 hours poking around and cursing.....
When I created the database locally I had by mistake an whitespace in front of the db name.
Which by the way was possible... I didn't know you could even create databases with whitespaces in the name.
What let me find the error was this post:
https://drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/27050/fatal-error-pdoexception-sqlstate42000-1049-unknown-database
and the hint with this query:
SELECT * FROM my_drupal_db.users
which of course failed and made me really question the database name.
Hope that helps someone else saving 3 hours!
I 've re-installed mysql, uninstalled MAMP.
So currently I should only have one version of mysql.
I've done the following:
Installed phpmyadmin
Created a database
I try to import data to it, but the file is too big so I do it via the command line. But there I dont see my newly created database, furthermore I see less databases.
If I do show databases; on the command it shows:
information_schema
test
It doesnt show my newly created Database and it doesn`t show other databases that were pre-installed, these are the databases that I see on phpmyadmin:
information_schema
mysql
performance_schema
test
myBBDD->the one I just created and I was looking for to import data via command-line
It seems I have two versions of mysql, but if I stop mysql via command line, I then can't access phpmyadmin so I guess it's the same one, but for some reason I can't access the same databases.
If you could throw me a bone on this? Im completely lost.
To install mysql and phpmyadmin I've followed this tutorial
[EDIT]
I tried to delete test and it did dissapear from the command-line too, so it is the same version of MySql, so it must be a permission issue... still investigating
Thanks.
Sounds like you have MAMP's version of MySQL and a standalone MySQL. See this answer:
Access MAMP's MySQL from Terminal
Just had the same issue, in my case it turned out to be that I wasn't logging in as the correct user.
In the command line, instead of running just mysql, try running mysql -u root -p (replace "root" with whatever user you used in phpMyAdmin to set the databases up). You should then be able to type in the password. Check show databases; again.
Just noticed that user Grasshopper in a previous answers' comments was suggesting exactly this, hopefully this will help someone anyway by spelling it out.
I recently switched from using XAMPP to WAMP on my Windows 7 machine so I can do fast switching of PHP versions.
I completely uninstalled XAMPP, but first I backed up my htdocs, apache and mysql directories just in case.
After I installed WAMP and had everything up and running, I figured I could just drop some of my databases from my old XAMPP install into the "data" directory of the mysql directory in WAMP.
So that worked and the database shows up in phpMyadmin, but there are no tables. Is this a permissions thing? Like maybe I don't have the same user in the new install of mysql? Or am I missing something?
Am I allowed to just copy MySQL databases from one data folder to another or does it not work that way?
Both instances are using MySQL 5.5 (at least that's what both README files say in both MySQL directories).
THANKS
When using phpMyAdmin out of the box so to speak in WAMP, MYSQL is installed as per its default installation with the root userid setup to have NO PASSWORD.
Some people seem to think they should make one up when they see the login screen, is that what you are doing?
When you do this phpmyadmin allows you to APPEAR to login but then as you do not have root's privilages you see almost nothing on its other screens and are allowed to do nothing.
Use
username = root
password = (leave this blank)
Then set a password, there is a link on the next page it presents. AND DONT FORGET IT!!!!
This generally isn't a good idea. RiggsFolly was asking about your table type because some table types are more forgiving than others. Other possible trouble spots include file system permission problems or MySQL permission problems (as RiggsFolly asked).
I'd suggest to do an export (as an SQL file) and import that for a complete solution.
