You need to create a MySQL user and password and enter that info in the
config.inc.php file as shown below. Then restart MySQL or reboot and it
will work.

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'your_mysql_username';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'your_password';

Don't forget to secure the webpage. :-)
