Sometimes you get the following error when accessing DBWebadmin (phpMyadmin ) in plesk
====
#1045 - Access denied for user ‘pma_tUuzljY3KmgS’@’localhost’ (using password: YES)
====
pma_tUuzljY3KmgS may vary according to your system
To fix this
vi /usr/local/psa/admin/htdocs/domains/databases/phpMyAdmin/libraries/config.default.php
and change the values of controluser , controlpass , pmadb to null
thats it ;save the file and now everything should work fine
