login to mysql as you did with no root password. type the following, replacing the myrootpw with whatever password you want.

SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('myrootpw');

then put the password in your config file. its not worth running without a root pw, even if you make it really simple. give it a try.
