Installation Joomla! 5.x • Re: "could not connect to the database....access denied to user" when installing joomla

In XAMPP and WAMP servers, the default user name is root and there is no password for the user root.

If you want to use another user to access the database, you have to access the database via phpMyAdmin, create a new user, and GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES to the user being created.

Hope this helps.
