Access Denied when opening phpMyAdmin

Question

What could be the problem of my MySQL database server in WAMP.

I can't open it. The error says:

MySQL said: Documentation
#2002 - No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

The server is not responding (or the local server's socket is not correctly configured). 

I checked the ports, but no other apps are using port 3306 which is dedicated to mysqld.

Here's what mysql.log says:

PS: I don't have a Skype. So I think it's not the conflict.

Answer 1

This works:

1. Stop the MySQL service
2. Open data folder
3. Remove both ib_logfile0 and ib_logfile1
4. Restart the service
