[Mysql-admin-updates] Access denied for user 'root'@localhost' (using password: YES / NO)

[Érico <eri...@gm...>]

Hi
I have installed mysql admin on my macbook pro ( 10.6.8 ) local environment

I am able to connect to mysql through command line :

ericomtxmacbookpro:bin ericomtx$ ./mysql -u root -p mysql-admin
Enter password:

I am also albe to access the db through eclipse using jconnector

...

but I can't access the aplication through the web ( apache 2.2.26 )

I get the error :

Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

or

Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

...

this also works ...
