Hello. When I want to install wordpress locally, I get an error on the database connection.
I've done it as it's done in the video, and I've also tried to use root as a username and password, and I'll get the same error.
I use mamp for windows, as I constantly got a port error in the wamp. I have tried to change the port in Skype, but it did not work
What do I do ??
