The solution I needed was Eric's as I also had renamed my WP folder and deleting the .htaccess file cured problems but if you hadn't started the thread he wouldn't have provided his simpler delete .htaccess solution. So I thank you both very much! Joseph, Thanks for posting this.

I am still getting the error: "Error establishing a database connection" This happens everytime I click "Open start page". Is there any other way of accessing the PHPMyAdmin area without a MAMP start page? I've been stuck on this for weeks and have read many forums and tried a number of suggestions. Uninstalling and reinstalling MAMP doesn't work for some reason. I tried everything mentoned on this page and had no luck. I am still getting the error:
