Hi.
Try to configure database connections (file config/database.php). I don't know if you are configured WAMPP.
By default, in WAMPP, the only user allowed to access to a database is "root" without password.

Here is a small script to test the database connection:
PHP Code:
<?php
// Test MySQLi Connection:
// Fill in connection information.
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = 'password';
$dbname = 'database_name';
$db_conn = mysqli_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass, $dbname);
// Evaluate the connection
if (mysqli_connect_errno())
{
echo mysqli_connect_error();
exit();
}
else
{
echo "Successful database connection.";
}
