Error connecting to MySQL: Access denied for user 'da_admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)


I am getting that error when clicking my mysql management, also I've changed the da_admin password from phpadmin by logging as da_admin but same thing the password which I've change its not even working nor the old one .


Please help
 
Can you login to MySQL via ssh with the same username and password as DirectAdmin is setup to use?

You forgot to close an other connection to MySql ? I had this problem and it was because I had one SQL_connect / mysql_close wrong ...

This help file isnt helping me at all.
What does it mean when it says "Once in, type"?
Once in where?
I type mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &
and then i get a blank line in ssh. No matter what I enter from there I get an errors like this -bash: FLUSH: command not found

What am I doing wrong and how exactly do i execute these commands?
 
I think they may have left out what you're going in to:

You need to enter the mysql interpreter:

# mysql
