(phpMyAdmin error) Login without a password is forbidden by configuration (see Allownopassword) in Ubuntu

1.Go to/etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php and open it your favorite editor.

2.Search for below line of code

$cfg [' Servers '] [$i] [' allownopassword '] = TRUE;   

Code lines would be looks like:-

if (!  Empty (//more code here/* Uncomment the following to enable logging on to passwordless accounts, * after taking not E of the associated security risks. *  //$cfg [' Servers '] [$i] [' allownopassword '] = TRUE;  $i + +;}    

and uncomment the //$cfg [' Servers '] [$i] [' allownopassword '] = TRUE; (Just remove "//" from start) to make login in phpMyAdmin with password

$cfg [' Servers '] [$i] [TRUE;  

Note:-if you are using older version of PHP then could be there was another same line of code so you need to uncomment also These lines like

if (! Empty ( $dbname)) { //other configuration options< Span class= "indent" >  $cfg [ ' Servers '][ $i][< Span class= "string" > ' Allownopassword '] = true;  $i + +;} //another code found Here $cfg [ Span class= "string" > ' Servers '][ $i][ ' Allownopassword '] = true;
