Hi Bakers

WB2.7
 
I changed my database password via MySQL admin but I am now locked-out of a WB installation. What file do I need to modify to tell the WB installation that it should accept the new database password?

I did look in Settings and Server Settings beforehand, but there was nothing mentioned in there about Database Username or Database password.     

Regards

Nicky

Hi,

In WB you've got to change the password the same as you did for the mysql database.
You have to edit the file config.php, the line with define('DB_PASSWORD', 'your_password_here');

If you forget the admin password, look here in the helpdocs.

Grtz,
Luc
