phpMyAdmin and mysql issue - mysql

I am running WAMP latest version
Everything was fine.......
I opened phpMyAdmin and added a user and a password for the user
Now I can not get into phpMyAdmin unless i set authentication type to cookie
Then I can login with my user name and no password.....but I HAVE a password....
Also MySQL console will login without a password now also....
What the heck have I done?
PHP config.ini looks like this:
<?php
/* Servers configuration */
$i = 0;
/* Server: localhost [1] */
$i++;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] = 'localhost';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost';

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['socket'] = '';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] = 'tcp';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['extension'] = 'mysqli';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'USERNAME';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'PASSWORD';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = true;
/* End of servers configuration */
$cfg['DefaultLang'] = 'en-utf-8';
$cfg['ServerDefault'] = 1;

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['bs_temp_blob_timeout'] = 600;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['bs_temp_log_threshold'] = '32M';
?>
Next MySQL ini file looks like this:

Literally all I did was open phpMyAdmin and added a new user
What I need to do is remove both users from phpMyAdmin
THEN
Add in a user with full privileges and a password and have that match what is in
phpMyAdmin config.ini file
I should be able to do all of this from the mysql command console but i need some help with commands.
If I could just get a user added and put that info in phpMyAdmin config.ini file i just need to get in it and I can modify what i need to.
I restored SQL back to noon today and this resolved my issue however the reason I had this issue to begin with is because I was trying to load an access applications database into sql and it kept telling me I did not have access. However when I login to phpMyAdmin with the same credentials all is well.

You do not have privileges to manipulate with the users

#
# To configure this host as a replication slave, you can choose between

# the syntax is:
#
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST=<host>, MASTER_PORT=<port>,
# MASTER_USER=<user>, MASTER_PASSWORD=<password> ;
#
# where you replace <host>, <user>, <password> by quoted strings and
# <port> by the master's port number (3306 by default).
#
# Example:
#
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='125.564.12.1', MASTER_PORT=3306,
# MASTER_USER='joe', MASTER_PASSWORD='secret';
#
# OR
#
# 2) Set the variables below. However, in case you choose this method, then
# start replication for the first time (even unsuccessfully, for example
# if you mistyped the password in master-password and the slave fails to
# connect), the slave will create a master.info file, and any later
# change in this file to the variables' values below will be ignored and
# overridden by the content of the master.info file, unless you shutdown
# the slave server, delete master.info and restart the slaver server.
# For that reason, you may want to leave the lines below untouched
# (commented) and instead use CHANGE MASTER TO (see above)
#
# required unique id between 2 and 2^32 - 1
# (and different from the master)
# defaults to 2 if master-host is set
# but will not function as a slave if omitted
#server-id = 2
#
# The replication master for this slave - required
#master-host = <hostname>
#
# The username the slave will use for authentication when connecting
# to the master - required

i added a new db but could not create user and even wen i select root user i get an error establishing connection
I intend to create a db for a wordpress website and a user for that database
Try to set this option in config.inc.php:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['DisableIS'] = true;
It worked for me.
I struggled with a similar issue after upgrading to MySQL 8.0 on Ubuntu 20.04, despite uninstalling MySQL first. The problem was that I didn't delete the mysql schema stored in /var/lib/mysql, and with the upgrade the number of columns in the user table changed. It seems that the installer "as a safety mechanism" alters the privileges in this table, which can be fixed in the mysql command-line console for each individual privilege along the lines of:
UPDATE mysql.user SET Grant_priv = 'Y' WHERE user = 'phpmyadmin' AND host =
'localhost';
I have the same problem, after remove xampp and reinstalled, solve this problem.
I suggest you remove and reinstall xampp program.
Note. If remove xampp program, everything inside htdocs folder
removed.

Import large table in mysql

I'm doing a import in mysql with this bash script:
ddl="set names utf8; "
ddl="$ddl set global net_buffer_length=1000000;"
ddl="$ddl set global net_write_timeout=1000000;"
ddl="$ddl set global max_allowed_packet=1000000000; "
ddl="$ddl set global key_buffer_size=1000000000; "
ddl="$ddl set global connect_timeout=100000; "
ddl="$ddl set global wait_timeout=100000; "
ddl="$ddl SET foreign_key_checks = 0; "
ddl="$ddl SET UNIQUE_CHECKS = 0; "
ddl="$ddl SET AUTOCOMMIT = 0; "

ddl="$ddl source $reducedfile; "
ddl="$ddl SET foreign_key_checks = 1; "

echo "Import started"

I have table which contains 15 columns, no indexes (only a primary key) and around 350k records. a simple log table.. the info is very basic just ints and dates.
When i try to import this table i'm getting the famous message 'Lost connection to MySQL server during query'. Does anybody know where i can find the error why mysql is aborting? there is nothing useful in /var/log/mysql/error.log only that it's restarting.
When i reduce the amount of records to 20 it imports just fine. Not sure where to look now to find out whats the problem.. the table is to large for my config is the only conclusion for now but i've set all the params before import and this is my.cnf

phpMyAdmin MySQL error # 1045

I have been working on setting up a home web server all morning now and it is working great except the fact that I can no longer access phpMyAdmin from the web server. The password and user in config.inc.php match the password in MySQL, I can access the MySQL Console fine.
I have set up port forwarding for the web server, registered a domain name with a DNS, and modified the httpd.conf file to allow access.
Here is the httpd.conf directory portions:
ServerName localhost:80
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/"
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</Directory>
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
# onlineoffline tag - don't remove
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
And here is my config.inc.php file:
<?php
/* Servers configuration */
$i = 0;
/* Server: localhost [1] */
$i++;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] = 'localhost';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost';

?>
I have read hours and hours of questions and answers, I have no idea what is causing this, any ideas? Thank you.
I found out what the problem was.
While all my above information is correct the web browser cached the information when it was incorrect. All I had to do was clear the cache and restart the server.
For me after searching in many answers was changing host in config.inc.php.
By default it is:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1';
But changing to
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost';
solved problem for me.

Django, nginx and uWSGI caching results until uWSGI/MySQL restart

I've written a server app in Django and serve an API to a mobile app with Tastypie and serving the DB with a local MySQL server.
It seems like queries are cached until the process is killed or ended. If I create a new user in the backend it will first appear in the list if I restart uWSGI or MySQL or if I log into the backend from a different browser.
Mysql process list
41 example localhost:58747 example 13 Sleep
42 example localhost:58748 example 16 Sleep
Also if I kill the processes which are Sleep'ed it will also trigger a refresh of the data.

I had the same behavior and found this post https://plus.google.com/u/0/101898908470597791359/posts/AuMJdgEo93k
Adding this line on settings.py (only the OPTIONS key) on Django:
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'OPTIONS': { "init_command": "SET storage_engine=INNODB, SESSION TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ COMMITTED", }
}
}
seems to have resolved the problem.

phpMyAdmin - what' swrong with next configuration?

tryin to install phpMyAdmin on my Fedora server, but if i open it in browser, i get next error:
2002 Cannot log in to the MySQL server
file config.inc.php have next content:
<?php
/* Servers configuration */
$i = 0;
/* Server: localhost [1] */
$i++;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] = '';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost';

$cfg['DefaultLang'] = 'en-utf-8';
$cfg['ServerDefault'] = 1;
$cfg['UploadDir'] = '';
$cfg['SaveDir'] = '';
?>
just to add, in mysql i created user root, with password 123, so i can log in with:
mysql -h localhost -u root -p123
can you help me where is the problem?
mysql -h localhost actually connects via unix socket instead of a TCP connection to 127.0.0.1. Explicitly specifying mysql -h 127.0.0.1 on the other hand does use the TCP method.
So what you are testing is a local socket connection, not a network one. Make sure phpMyAdmin uses the same method; the line
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] = 'tcp';
should probably read
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] = 'socket';
Your mysqld probably has either networking disabled or user permissions denying root/123 access from the network.
With -h localhost in your example you are actually connecting over a named socket. You can see for yourself - from the mysql client type "\s":
mysql> \s
--------------
(....)
Connection: Localhost via UNIX socket
ok, i solve it.
in configuration file, i just changed 'localhost' to '127.0.0.1', and it started to work.
tnx anw!
