I am new to MySQL and PHP. Trying to set up a local Wordpress site and manage it. Cannot connect to the MAMP MySQL database with CocoaMySQL. I am using the beta version, which works with versions MySQL > 4.1.
Thanks!

HEY, THAT DID IT!
Thanks so much.
I believe for MAMP the root password is set to "root" by default,
.. which you should change (using phpMyAdmin > Privileges > change password for root@localhost), although this may mean that MAMP can no longer connect to it, without altering some conf files
Try this in the Socket field of your connect dialog (assuming you put MAMP in Applications)
