Is your mysql running as the correct user (mysql) so mambo can access it?

Did you follow the instructions for configuring mysql before you tried to start it? What are the errors you are getting?

I did not configure mysql Only i started it. When i started phpmyadmin homepage there is an warning like this

Quote:

Your configuration file contains settings (root with no password) that correspond to the default MySQL privileged account. Your MySQL server is running with this default, is open to intrusion, and you really should fix this security hole.

but it is a local server and i only want to make mambo templates is this important

It is important, but it's probably not what is stopping mysql from running. Have a look in your startup script for mysqld (on a Slackware box it's /etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld). In mine, it told me to run the following commands before mysql could be started:

Code:

su - mysql
mysql_install_db

On my system, mysql_install_db is in /usr/bin

Ok I think I missed some information i run these commands. when i try to start mysql it gives me an error like
"mysql.pid file mysql ended ..."
then i read rc.mysql and run these commands and then i start mysql (sh /etc/rc.d/rc.mysql start) then it begin running
I can create database with phpmyadmin but mambo can not access the mysql what is the problem is this a permission problem?

It could be. As Alien_Hominid asked, is mysql running as the correct user?

Today I added a new user and i started phpmyadmin with new user there is no problem i added a database then
İ totally read xushi's guide and i made necessary changes and restarted all services but still i can't solve my problem
