I'm able to run mysql from the command line, and I can run simple php scripts from my browser, but when I try to log in to phpmyadmin, I get an error : Wong username/password.

I've pored over config.inc.php and can't find anything wrong there.

Also, when I try to install a php package that uses mysql, I get a similar error during the install.

Someone has suggested that I check the my.cnf, but I don't have one, as far as I can tell; I gather that's not unusual with OS X.

Someone else has suggested that php is encrypting the password, but mysql doesn't know it. Is that possible.

Thanks for any help.
