title: How to allow remote access to phpmyadmin
body: <p>I am running a Linux server with Apache2 and PHPMyAdmin installed. I am able to login remotely with my root account but not the account that was created for someone else. The new user has his host settings to "%" like it should be. However when I try to login with his account I get the error...</p>
  
  <pre><code>#1045 Cannot log in to the MySQL server
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Might anyone be able to help me? I know there was supposed to be something like added to a file to allow permission but I can't seem to get it to work.</p>
  
  <p><strong>RESOLVED:</strong> I figured out the way to fix it. I had to go into SSH and use the command "mysql_secure_installation" and answer the questions :) Thanks everyone! I hope this helps others who have the same problem.</p>
