This issue mostly appears when one tries to set or change mysql password. Try editing phpmyadmin/config.inc.php and config.sample.inc.php files.

If you're getting the #2002 Cannot log in to the MySQL server error while logging in to phpmyadmin, try editing phpmyadmin/config.inc.php and change:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost';
to:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1';
Solution from Ryan's blog

phpMyAdmin is throwing a #2002 cannot log in to the mysql server phpmyadmin
