Hello all,
Recently I made an attempt at setting up phpMyAdmin to allow my colleagues to
interface with mySQL easily. In doing so I set a password for the root user, and
placed the settings in my config file. When a new version of phpMyAdmin was released,
I upgraded without backing up my old configuration file. Now, I can't seem to remember
my password. I have tried to shut down the mySQL server, and also tried to kill the
process, but my server does not show mySQL running in the processes list. This is even
when logged in as root. The only way I can connect to mySQL is using the command
"mysql -u -p", which allows me to connect, but not to manipulate anything or stop the
service. If anyone has any ideas as to what I should do to recover my lost password,
or reset it, please let me know. As some of you may know, cobalt servers are slightly
different than regular unix servers, and their support is less than first class.
Thanks again for your help.
Thanks,
