Could not connect, please check server settings in config.php. Error: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

This usually means you have changed the password for the "root" user in your mySQL install. by default it is normally blank.

Just update the line below in config.php with the password you set...

$mysqlpass = "[mySQL Root password here]";

Hope that helps.
