How to change my mysql password?

I just made a stupid mistake… accidentally I changed the mysql password on my webspace, but I have no idea which one I used at the beginning when I installed Textpattern. Now the only thing I get when I try to access the site I creadtes with textpatter is “Database not availiable”.

How to I change the mysql password within textpatter to get my site back working?

Thank you very much in advance!

I think you have only to change the password defined in your config.php.

$txpcfg['pass'] = 'your_new_password here';

Ah, thank you very much! It’s quite a long time ago I created my website and totally forgot that the password is defined in the config.php….
