Title: Failed to connect - CRON
Post by: Thomas on February 17, 2003, 09:55:14 AM

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?

Regards
Thomas

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