I had this problem so I’m posting how I got it solved. If you want to change mysql configuration you have to edit app/etc/local.xml, some people say it works, but for me it did not work until I had removed all the magento’s cache files from the directory: var/cache After that the changes to the mysql configuration were updated!

To access admin page go to http://127.0.0.1/magento/index.php/admin/ (change localhost to 127.0.0.1) default password for admin is 123123 To change the password  UPDATE admin_user SET password=MD5('mypassword') WHERE username='admin'; change {{base_url}} to the exact web address source: http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/general/resetting-admin-password **************************************************************** Login and Add to cart Problem But due to standard restrictions browsers don’t save cookie for domains with no dots in domain name. You can try to access it with http://localhost.com /magento   reference:  http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/4337 Solution Using 127.0.0.1 instead of my machine name.   Note: Don't forget to change the default link in magento configuration page and Prototype_usf target p ag e Anyway, in IE, Fiddler cannot capture 127.0.0.1 host address.  So, using Firefox instead.
