You can login to mysql at the commandline with the "mysql" command. To reset the password, have a look here: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12776
I've a similar problem where ispconfig will create a database in the admin panel but it does not actually show up in mysql, which basically the new database is not being created I suppose I'm also unable to run updates because of it. When I run ispconfig_update.php an error stating it could not log on as root@localhost. If I use Code: mysql -uroot -ppassword I can log on to mysql as root. I've tried setting /usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/conf.inc.php and entering the root user and password (since I do not know what the password of the ispconfig user in mysql is) under the section //** Database I do not think that worked. The hostname of the box was also changed but here's the output of: Code: hostname -f hostname: Unknown host I have had to reset the admin user to get into ispconfig's admin panel. The login does work. not sure if that is related to the mysql issue. This is ISPConfig 3.0.16 on CentOS. Any thoughts?
you posted here in a thread about ispconfig 2, which is a completely different softeware theasn ispconfig 3. So nothing that you read here applies to your server. Putting the root user in the config.inc.php file on a ispconfig 3 server breaks the system if you try to update then, so you have to undo that and restore the exact user and password that was in the file. regarding your original problem, you must have changed the root password in mysql and missed to change it afterwards in the mysql_client.inc.php file in /usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/
I apologize for posting in the wrong section, I arrived here from a google search. If I develop more questions I will create a new post or find a post similar to the issue I experience in the correct section. I did indeed miss changing it in the mysql_client.inc.php Thank you very much for the quick response.
