Hi,

I have installed wordpress just like you have mentioned, i have also copied the wordpress database into my local database and replaced all the references of my live blog’s URL with the localhost equivalent. Home page loads great, and any link i click after that is broken… do you have any suggestions? i have the apache re-write module turned on so thats not the problem

I have followed this tutorial twice now and I also get the error:
#1045 – Access denied for user ‘root’@’localhost’ (using password: NO)

I will try it a third time. Hopefully it is user error on my part.
But I am beginning to think maybe there is something missing from the tutorial, or something changed in wamp download, or maybe something about my computer.
Any help would be appreciated.

In that case, you have to repeat this step: “Setting up phpMyAdmin configuration setting”
