I have upgraded Ubuntu 9.10 to Ubuntu 10.10 but I cannot access PhpMyAdmin. How can I change the username and password for PhpMyAdmin? I urgently need to access PhpMyaAmin because my database is there. I need to upload the database onto my server but I can't access it.

The error message shown is #1045 Cannot log in to the MySQL server.

The password for phpMyAdmin is your mysql admin username and password. There are not separate login details for phpMyAdmin itself.
