    I tried your instructions, all they did was mess up wamp. Luckily I had copied the affected files and was able to restore them.

    I have a yellow wamp that is online. My issue is when I try to set-up a password in phpMyAdmin I get access denied. The set-up tells me to refer to “Most common errors sections” where is this section!?!?!?!?

    Error Message: #1045 Can not connect to mysql server.

    Thanks for the clue you supplied, it worked. After I download the ResetMysql Zip file using the downloading option, I unzipped it and followed the instruction in the readme file and it really worked for me, I can now connect to my Mysql server with php now and also I’m using windows 7

    Hi

    For the sake of anyone else here is the solution I found. First, I think that my problem was using a search facility to remove empty folders, at least I think that was the cause of my problem. I found the answer at:

    http://www.apachefriends.org/f/viewtopic.php?t=34683&f=7

    [ERROR] Fatal error: Can’t open and lock privilege tables: File ‘.\mysql\host.MYD’ not found (Errcode: 2)

    Hey this is easy to fix. This is happening because you got delete your host.MYD file, most of the time because it is an empty file.( in my computer it is always 0) to fix this open your my.ini (inside mysql installation) and find your “datadir”

    In my wamp installation, it is

    datadir=C:/programming/wamp/bin/mysql/mysql5.1.36/data

    Go to that data directory and go to mysql folder inside it. and inside that find any MYD file. We have to duplicate any MYD file. For example (db.MYD) ,, duplicate it, change its name to host.MYD. and then open newly created host.MYD and clear all the content inside it. Nw mysql should work.

    Kind regards
