I've just installed the latest production release of MySQL (64-bit) on my Windows 7 box. It was a straight vanilla install, using all defaults; but phpmyadmin can't see it at all. MySQL is configured as a service to start automatically, and I know it's running because the MySQL GUI tools work correctly.

Doing a netstat -a, I see

TCP    0.0.0.0:3306           Marks-Netbook:0        LISTENING

when I'd expect to see

TCP    127.0.0.1:3306         Marks-Netbook:0        LISTENING

I don't know if this is the reason phpmyadmin can't connect, but suspect that it is probably the case. Can anybody confirm whether this is the likely cause, and/or suggest how I can reso;lve this?
