How Can I Delete Xampp Permanently on Mac Os?

I used Xampp and deleted it. Then, I tried to use Mamp. There is an error that I don't understand. Mamp is working perfect as webserver. But if I want to use phpmyadmin, it doesn't work.

For example, I insert something to database. It isn't showing in phpmyadmin. It is saving to old Xampp database although I deleted Xampp. How does it happen?
