phpMyAdmin ERROR: mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/1045): Access denied for user 'pma'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

yo need create the user "pma" in mysql or change this lines(user and password for mysql):

/* User for advanced features */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser'] = 'pma'; 
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass'] = '';

Linux: /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

Add this line to the file xampp\phpMyAdmin\config.inc:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['port'] = '3307';

Here, my port is 3307, you can change it to yours.

In terminal, log into MySQL as root. You may have created a root password when you installed MySQL for the first time or the password could be blank, in which case you can just press ENTER when prompted for a password.

 sudo mysql -p -u root

Now add a new MySQL user with the username of your choice. In this example we are calling it pmauser (for phpmyadmin user). Make sure to replace password_here with your own. You can generate a password here. The % symbol here tells MySQL to allow this user to log in from anywhere remotely. If you wanted heightened security, you could replace this with an IP address.

CREATE USER 'pmauser'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password_here';

Now we will grant superuser privilege to our new user.

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'pmauser'@'%' WITH GRANT OPTION;

Then go to config.inc.php ( in ubuntu, /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php )

/* User for advanced features */

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser'] = 'pmauser'; 
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass'] = 'password_here';
