When accessing PHPMyAdmin in one of the cPanel accounts on our VPS - it prompts us to login again on the PHPMyAdmin login screen (which also has no frame, CSS assets, etc). I enter my login details and it takes me to a blank screen. So I can't access PHPMyAdmin to do work on live websites. Also, when clicking on the MySQL databases option in cPanel (to create a new database for etc) it says "The MySQL server is currently offline." and the following error shows up:
I have also attempted signing into MySQL via command line to flush privileges, etc - but it says access is denied for the root user.
I'm not sure why this is happening. MySQL is working perfectly fine on the frontend all websites are still functional.
Code:
Error while connecting to MySQL: Cpanel::DBI::Mysql connect('','root',...) failed: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) at /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/MysqlUtils/Connect.pm line 136 Error while connecting to MySQL: Cpanel::DBI::Mysql connect('','root',...) failed: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) at /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/MysqlUtils/Connect.pm line 136 ...caught
