Use the PHPMYADMIN methods to reset your password.
hello dear Steven,
many thanks – i do not have phpmyadmin – i have webmin and if i try to access a db i get an error
SQL select table_schema,table_name from information_schema.views where table_schema = ? failed : Can’t create/write to file ‘/var/tmp/mysql.5u7n3M/#sql_608_0.MYI’ (Errcode: 2)
perhaps a permission issue.
