There is hardly anything more to tell than what the error and warning messages are telling.

You did not enter a password for the admin user (root), so the installer uses the password of the database user (admin).
This fails because passwords of user root and user admin are different.

I assume you mean "blank" (empty). You should change the password of user root.
