phpMyAdmin error

Trying to use phpMyAdmin because a Bolt config file [config.yml] implies it’s using MySQL, and I specifically wanted to try it because bolt says it defaults to SQLite. Also I looked using Filezilla and found a .db file with zero bytes. So I wanted to check if the install setup a MySQL database. More wasted time…here is the email I sent my webhost.

I’m getting an error trying to use phpMyAdmin. I use it often with no problems. I can only assume it has something to do with my “Bolt CMS” issue [Ticket ID: DOH-771-67468]  I reported yesterday, because it involved PHP. However I personally made no changes to PHP.  All I did was attempted to install Bolt CMS using Softaculous!

The error being returned is:

mysqli_connect(): (28000/1045): Access denied for user ‘billslit’@’localhost’ (using password: YES)
Undefined index: auth_type
