Default ERROR 1045, Access denied for user 'root'

I saw other threads that had the same issue, but none of the fixes applied there are seeming to work for me. I have a batch file that is supposed to launch the server but am having issues there. Currently root does not have a password in mysql, I can log in via command window without using one, and if I try using one, it won't work. I have a screenshot of the errors, but since I can't post attachments I will type it up.

Error in DOS window after running batch file to start server
Code:
Status Starting Log: logs/eqemu_shared_memory_4560.log
Status Shared Memory Loader Program
Status Connecting to database...
Error Starting Log: logs/eqemu_error_shared_memory_4560.log
Error Failed to connect to database: Error: #1045: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
Error Unable to connect  to the database, cannot continue without a database connection
waiting for the world to finish before starting zone...

My config file has the following:
Code:
<database>
	<host>localhost</host>
	<port>3306</port>
	<username>root</username>
	<password></password>
	<db>peq</db>
</database>
If anyone that knows much about this doesn't mind doing a skype/dolbyx(or I can install another program) I would really appreciate it (also posting possible fixes works too!). And currently this will be a local server, if I open it up to friends, I will be adding a password onto root
