Question : How to retrieve a Joomla database password - GoDaddy installation

Hello,

I cannot access the mysql databases on my GoDaddy Joomla installations via phpAdmin.

When I look into the configuration.php of the site, I see a password in the var $password = line.
Going into the hosting control pane, I select the database and try to open it via phpAdmin with that password from the $password line, but I always get an error message.
What's wrong here?

Thanks!

Hi Sumukha,

in my experience once in the Control Panel you should be able to open the database in phpAdmin without any further credentials. Sounds like a GoDaddy server or control panel issue and you should ask their support for assistance.
