error 1045 (mysql)

[AlaskanWolf]

Changed the mysql root pass, and getting quite a bit of errors (user side ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: \'[email protected]\' (Using password: YES) 0

whm side:

ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: \'[email protected]\' (Using password: NO)
/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at \'localhost\' failed
error: \'Access denied for user: \'[email protected]\' (Using password: NO)\'


already checked the .my.cnf file and it matches the new password, any ideas as i have 500 customers screaming down my back

Did you change it w/ the WHManager or did you change it from the command line? You should do it from the WHManager and then restart all CPanel 3 servers, and run the phpmyadminupdate (within cpanel/bin somewhere... don\'t remember exactly where)... that will update the include files for the user frontend that is within each user\'s cpanel.....


Let me know.

WHM screws up when you try change the root mysql pass, I have found a fix for this for any other hosts that might encounter such error

step by step

login via ssh

run the commands as follows:

killall mysqld
safe_mysqld --skip-grant-tables &
/usr/local/cpanel/startup

Then login into WHM reset the MySQL root
password.

go back to ssh...

killall mysqld
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start

And that should fix it... =)

Never once had a problem w/ that function.
Thanks for the advice!

Rock on chicago.

Not working.

I tried that and it didn't fixed the problem.

WHM 6.4.2
Cpanel 6.4.2-E85
RedHat 7.3

Any other ideas ?

Thank you.

all you have to do is reload the mysql...


once you change the mysql password, login to phpmyadmin and reload the mysql.

I've only ever used the 'Reset MySQL Root Password' in Webfsck Manager.. or whatever.

Then if you must.. edit the .....

/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php

..file with a new crypted password.

It's rare for me to need to go that far though.. only really ever need to just reset it.
