Title: Changed password and broke site
Post by: treehstn on March 07, 2022, 06:24:45 am

Hi,

I forgot to write down the password to login into the gallery itself.  I changed the wrong password. I got confused and changed the main database password.  I think there's a connector between MySql and CM letting CM know what the database password is but I can't find it in the documentation.  I hope I'm making sense...  Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thank you!

I found it!  It was in config.php.  Fixed!
