Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'



I am getting this error with adminer.php and phpmyadmin won't work either. I am able to run SQL commands in terminal after typing 'sudo mysql'. I have a user table with root as a username but there is no password field.



If anyone can help me to get this to work it would be great.
