mysql root password

[ikaRus]

Hi,

Just installed a new DA server on Debian etch yesterday.

I used the GUI to change the default random admin password and selected to do the same for mysql.

Now I can't log into mysql/phpmyadmin, I used root/admin for username, and the new password, no luck.

I can of course use the my.cnf hack to modify the password but I'm not sure what effect this will have on DA.

Pointers appreciated.

D.

Try the user/pass located in this file: /usr/local/directadmin/conf/mysql.conf

Hi,

Thats probably a good advice, I found that file after I reinstalled mysql and set the username/password.

Works fine now.

Many thanks,

D.

Is this file different if you use custombuild? I tried the username and password located in that file to log in to phpMyAdmin but it doesnt seem to work correctly. I initially installed DA with customapache and then later realized I needed to convert to custombuild.

I'm having an issue with roundcube and want to see whats going on in the database since I keep getting these errors:

mojo:/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild# ./build roundcube
cp: `/var/www/html/roundcube/logs/errors' and `/var/www/html/roundcubemail-0.1/logs/errors' are the same file
cp: cannot stat `/var/www/html/roundcube/temp/*': No such file or directory
