During PHPMyAdmin installation, it first asks for the existing MySQL root password, but then it asks for a second password called "MySQL application password for phpmyadmin". The text provided was "please provide a password for phpmyadmin to register with the database server. If left blank, a random password will be generated".
What is this password used for? I noticed I can log in from the phpmyadmin web homepage without using this second password.
