    Hi there, I’m trying to manually install wordpress to test an offline site using MAMP. I follow these steps but the database just wont accept the password.

    -Install MAMP

    Start Apache and SQL servers

    Login to MAMP on a browser and open phpadmin. Create a database called ‘wordpress’

    -Download wordpress and copy it into a folder called ‘wordpress’ in C:\MAMP\htdocs

    -Open browser and go to http://localhost:8888/wordpress

    -The WordPress opening screen appears.

    -Database name is wordpress, user is root and password is root. Database is localhost and table prefix is wp_. Click submit.

    -Get Error establishing a database connection
