    Cannot Access phpMyAdmin

    Account Name : allscr
    Domain Name: allscripts.iwoly.com
    E-mail ID : I am not happy putting an e-mail into a forum post
    Server hosted : box9.host1free.com

    I changed my password in DirectAdmin Web Control Panel and checked all boxes for:
    DirectAdmin Account
    Main FTP Account
    Main Database Account

    I tried to log into phpMyAdmin with both the new and old password with no success.

    I can login with FTP and DirectAdmin, (system), using the new password.

    The old password still shows in the Control Panel though.

    Hello,

    To access phpMyAdmin, firstly you need to create a database. Then you will get database username and password which you will use to access phpMyAdmin.

    @Modestas
    Thanks.
    The strange thing is yesterday when I clicked on the 'Create new database' in:
    MySQL Management
    Create new Database
    phpMyAdmin
    I got an error so I thought that I had to access phpMyAdmin to create a new database due to the password change 'Main Database Account'.

    As I have never used 'DirectAdmin' before, (usually I use cPanel), I was a little uncertain.

    Anyway all is good as there was no error today and the database was created and I accessed phpMyAdmin with the username and password created in 'MySQL Management'.

    Thanks again!

    Still curious as to why the old password still shows in the Control Panel though.

    I see. Happy to see that it worked for you.

    Password in your control panel will be changed only after you will reset your account by clicking Reset Account.
