if you have installed phpmyadmin and you get this error:
Error
The configuration file now needs a secret passphrase (blowfish_secret).
simply open the file config.inc.php called and look for this:
config.inc.php
/*
* This is needed for cookie based authentication to encrypt password in
* cookie
*/
$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'YOURPASSWORD'; /* YOU MUST FILL IN THIS FOR COOKIE AUTH! */
now put your password where you see YOURPASSWORD i the example above
