I tried everything: changing permissions, unshareshare folder via system preferences, unshareshare folder via its properties, connecting as guest, connecting with my username, creating a special user for smb shares.

But theres no any problem accessing the SMB-shared folders which reside on the external hard drive (WD MyBook 1TB).

Ive experienced the same problem, but fixed it by enablingdisabling SMB.

Here is my problem: I am try to config a sv XAMPP 1.7.3.

I defined my root pass also other users.

No problem. I tested, it works also in shell.

Now, when I type localhost, it loads perfectly as long as it is the xampp defaut.

If I am trying to upload my site with mysql DB, it says: Access denied for user rootlocalhost (using password: NO).

I tried all the methods, modifying the config.php in my adminphp no result.

I must say that if I delete the root pass (leave it blank), my website (localhostmysite) loads perfectly.

You are getting this while trying to log into phpMyAdmin or via another method How are you setting the password How are you importing this database What is the value of cfgServersiauthtype in xamppphpmyadminconfig.inc.php.

In phpmyadmin I am entering without problems with the root and its password.

The database is imported and its working perfectly when I put no password for root.

But when I define the password.

BANG. error. trying from my IE to access 127.0.0.1mysite.

Serversiauthtype in xamppphpmyadminconfig.inc.php the value is cookie.

I also tried the other var, but without success as long as root has a password.

Much simple, when I put a pass for the root, I cant access the php prg.

If you change the database for the SQL server, you need to adjust your website to use the new password.

Also, it is generally not a good idea to use the root user as a general purpose account or for website interactions.

It would be better to create a user that can only access the databases it needs and only has the permissions that it needs.
