I installed Simple Machines with Fantastico and it created the MySQL database with user "mfxnjunn_smf1" but I have no idea what this users password is. Does anyone know what this would be. I need it to a conversion from IPB to SMF.<br /><br />Thanks for any help.<br /><br />Lee<!--content-->
Didn't the installer ask you for a password? Normally they do. And it also usually emails you the information of the user/password.<!--content-->
Bruce<br /><br />That info is for the admin of the board, I think that the conversion program wants the MySQL user password. Is there any way to find out what the pssword is for the MySQL users in cPanel??<br /><br />Lee<!--content-->
You could use phpAdmin to change the password but I don't think you can see the password.<!--content-->
You can also check any congfig files and see if it is there. Or you can add a new user with a new password and add it to the database.<!--content-->
Bruce <br /><br />Thanks for the ideas but I can't seem to see any way to set a new pasword in phpadmin, and I have a user that I know the password for and that does not work. I am going to SMF forum to see if someone there can help. <br /><br />Again thanks much for the help and if anyone else has an answer please pipe up.<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />Lee<!--content-->
Hello Lee,<br /><br />If you access your cpanel, and then go to file manager. Use this to navigate to the folder containing SMF. I believe the file your looking for is settings.php<br /><br />Open this and scroll down to database info, this is where it shall be contained.<br /><br />JimE<!--content-->
