Hello all,
I've been banging my head against the wall for a few days now, and I can't seem to fix this problem. About a week ago I attempted to change my MySQL root password, but upon doing so, I found my site could no longer access the XOOPS database. So I did the following:
1. Changed the root password in MySQL back to the old one, and the site started functioning again.
2. Realized that I never changed the password in mainfile.php, so I then changed the MySQL root password again to something new, and made the corresponding change in mainfile.php. It didn't work.
3. Once again, tried to go back to the old root password, and put the entries in mainfile.php back to what they were, and I've never been able to get my site running ever since.
I've tried changing passwords back and forth, using a fresh mainfile.php and reconfiguring it, deleting the contents of cache and templates_c, and nothing has worked.
I can access the database using MySQL directly, and there appear to be no problems with it...
What the hell?? My site has been down now for a week.
Thanks for any help!
