[RESOLVED] phpMyAdmin - #2003 - The server is not responding

[McCain]

Hi

When I try to log in to phpMyAdmin (cookie auth) I get a

#2003 - The server is not responding

error message.
I know the server is running, because I can connect to it from a command window, and I can select stuff from the databases using php scripts.

Could it have something to do with the fact that I'm using named pipes to connect to the mySQL server? How do I tell phpMyAdmin to use named pipes?

To use a named pipe, enter a single period as your servers host i.e: ".". This will force PHP to use a named pipe to connect to the server.

Doh!
I use '.' as host in my own script, but didn't think of using it in phpMyAdmin...
