phpMyAdmin config problem

Jun 8th, 2005

I am completely new to phpMyAdmin and relatively new to MySQL, so this may be a dumb question. Please forgive me if it is.

I have MySQL running successfully, no problems that I am aware of. I have IIS running on the same server with PHP installed and am successfully able to run basic PHP scripts. I am however, unable to get phpMyAdmin to allow me to connect to MySQL. I have configured the config.inc.php file per the directions, i.e. modified host name, user name and password for my server and a MySQL authorized user. When I connect to the server http://host/myadmin/index.php, I get a prompt for username and password, but no matter what I enter there, it comes right back to the same prompt again. It doesn't say that the username/password are bad, just comes back and prompts me again.

What am I missing?

Thanks,
