Hello,
I would like to change a password on a database I just uploaded. The password is ‘password’, so I tried changing via:
Virtualmin > select server > Edit Databases > Passwords > Change database password > MySQL database: Same as administration password > Save > config.php > $dbuser = '’; > $dbpasswd = ‘’;.
When the dbpasswd was the same as the VirtualServerAdministrationPassword, the database would not load. I changed the dbpasswd back to ‘password’ and the database loaded.
I also tried:
Virtualmin > Webmin > System > Change Passwords > VirtualServerName (I didn’t see the database’s name) > New password > New password (again) > Change.
Are you sure you have the latest version of Webmin (1.844) and Virtualmin (5.99). There were a number of changes made to support newer MySQL versions in recent releases. As far as i know, password changes are working correctly in the current version (but were not up until 1.84x).
Operating system CentOS Linux 7.3.1611
Webmin version 1.844
Usermin version 1.711
Virtualmin version 5.99
