phpMyAdmin says no privilege to create database, despite logged in as root user

I need to login to mysql using root user and create a database. However, when I login to PhpMyAdmin as root user, it tells me that it has "no privileges", therefore cannot create a database.

I did not expect this to happen when I installed phpMyAdmin. Is there a way to fix this? Please help, thank you!

Version info:

OS: OpenSUSE 12.1

MySQL: mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.25, for Linux (x86_64) using readline 6.2

PhpMyAdmin: 3.4.10.2

  • It appears to be a transient issue and fixed itself afterwards. Thanks for everyone's attention.
