Possible to change SQL database user password?

[Vertimyst]

Hi,

 

I recently installed Wordpress to my server, and created the MySQL database through the cPanel wizard. When doing so, it asked me to create a user, so I entered the username 'admin' and put in a password.

 

Now, after doing that, I went to load up WHMCS, but I got this error:

 

Critical Error

Could not connect to the database

 

I went into cPanel and looked at my SQL users list. Apparently, there's only one 'admin' - which I apparently created for WHMCS. My guess is the password I entered for Wordpress overwrote the one WHMCS was using, so now it can't connect.

 

Is it possible to change the password WHMCS is trying to use? I know Wordpress uses a PHP configuration file for this, does WHMCS have a similar option?

You are correct, you changed the password for an exisiting user. Login to cpanels filemanager and edit the file configuration.php in your whmcs directory.

 

change the password line:

$db_password = "xxxxxxxxx";

 

save and you should be ok

Awesome, thanks so much. Exactly what I was looking for.
