Can anyone confirm that phpMyAdmin AllowNoPassword works with MySQL databases?

Question

Copy config.sample.inc.php to config.inc.php.

In most cases you will find the config file
- on linux: /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
- on mac: /Library/WebServer/Documents/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
If you are trying to log in as root, you should have the following lines in your config:

$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘user’] = ‘root’;
$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘AllowNoPassword’] = true;
