title: MySQL Error 2003 (WAMP)
body: <p>Im tryng to learn SQL, and I installed Wamp (which includes MySQL) in Windows 7. The problem is when I open phpMyAdmin, the next error appears: </p>
  
  <pre><code>#1045 - Accès refusé pour l'utilisateur: 'root'@'@localhost' (mot de passe: OUI)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and when I try to open the MySQL console, it request me a password (I tried root, nothing, password); when I insert it and press enter, it shows me the 2003 error (MySQL can't connect) and the console closes inmediately.</p>
  
  <p>The WAMP icon is green, MySQL service is running, but it doesn't as a procces in the task manager.</p>
  
  <p>I know this was asked many times, and that is a common issue, but i've been looking for the past four hours and its driving me crazy; every solution that i tried didn't work for me. Any ideas? Thanks.</p>
