Topic: Failed to connect - CRON

[Thomas]

This morning I got this error message from my server:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)'
/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)'

What the heck???

Anybody got an idea as to why this happens, and how I can fix it?

Sounds like you've changed the mysql root password--very bad idea.
