I just upgraded to the latest version of DietPi yesterday and the default credentials for MariaDB via PhpMyAdmin don’t seem to be working. According to the software list the login should be:

MySql / MariaDB Details:  
username = root  
password = dietpi

Can anyone tell me if I’m missing something? I also tried a SQL command line update of the root password and it allowed me to use command line. But I still am unable to access the instance via PhpMyAdmin. This was working perfectly on version 159 and I didn’t need to do anything additional. I appreciate the look.
