I’m having trouble accessing myphpadmin. I work on an IT Team with a few other people and I think someone has changed my password and I can’t figure out how they’ve done or who has done – and no one seems to remember the password.

How would I go about resetting the password for myphpadmin?

I’m using this wampstack.

Hi,

you can regenerate using the Apache htpasswd tool:

> cd <installdir>/apache2
> bin\htpasswd -cb users administrator PASSWORD

I hope it helps.

I tried that through the command line – and it seems to go through; but nothing changes.

C:\Program Files (x86)\BitNami WAMPStack\apache2\bin>htpasswd -cb users administrator PASSWORD
Automatically using MD5 format.
Adding password for user administrator.

But it still will not allow me to access myphpadmin.

Sorry you should set the users file according to the path. Try the following and restart Apache after run this command:

C:\Program Files (x86)\BitNami WAMPStack\apache2\bin>htpasswd -cb “C:\Program Files (x86)\BitNami WAMPStack\apache2\users” administrator PASSWORD

Cheers.
