Looks like you've changed the MySQL root password.  Dumb idea.

There was an old backup bug that had to do with the MySQL password and LDAP password getting out of sync.  The fix there was to re-sync them.  I believe that might work for you in this case.  Follow the instructions at http://www.e-smith.org/bugs/index.php3?op=showBug&bugID=51 and see if that puts it right.

if I do a restore of the backup and change the password , will it turn out better then ???

[Dan Brown]

I have yet to see a good reason to manually change the MySQL root password.  Just don't do it.  The bug listing linked by the other Dan should fix the password without needing to restore.
