Default Step 1 MySQL Username Password Incorrect

I have installed MySQL 5... and PHP 4... and mysqladmin I am now trying to install joomla 1.0.10. I enter in the information it is asking for. localhost, root, password, mysqldatabase. When I click on next it then tells me that the username and password are incorrect.

Does anyone know what is going wrong?

Default Re: Step 1 MySQL Username Password Incorrect

Same with me. When I installed MySQL via XAAMP it asked for a user name and password. Joomla also does in the setup 'step 1'. However using 'root' and leaving pw empty does not work nor does using the name and password I setup upon installation. I changed the .ini file to have a blank for both (deleted name and password) and this doesn't work either.

This has been an extraordinarily hard process and this is just the latest frustration.

Ok, apparently this site doesn't get used much because the poor sap that created this thread has had 1600 views in one year since he posted and NO replies.

Anyway I figured it out. When I first installed XAAMP when I was trying to get everything to run I was asked to create a MySQL name and password. When I ran the Joomla installer it also asks for a name and password and even though I used the right one it would't accept it.

I had to uninstall EVERYTHING (BTW the XAAMP installer doesn't do the trick you have to uninstall Filezilla and MySQL manually) so after an hour or so I was able to reinstall everything and it worked.
