Failure to update all the necessary files results in MAMP reporting the following error: /Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysqlcheck: Got error: 1045: Access denied for user (using password: YES) when trying to connect By default it’s set to root.Ĭhanging the MySQL password for the root user was straightforward enough, but locating and editing the files to reflect the new password was a different story. Having recently changed my local testing server environment from XAMPP to MAMP v2.0.5 I wanted to change the password for the MySQL root user.
