 * In the process of updating to 2.3.2 through my godaddy admin account. (I’ve always
   used godaddy to install and upgrade wordpress.)
 * Somehow I thought it would a be a brainy idea to upgrade my passwords – and I
   think I changed my sql password and wordpress password (for the forums).
 * The upgrade failed so I restored. But now I cannot get into my admin in wordpress.
   Here’s my blog:

    The site located at [http://www.planningforever.com/blog](http://www.planningforever.com/blog)
   indicates that you are not using the correct information in your coding to connect
   to your database for your WordPress application. We are not experiencing issues
   with our hosting or database servers that would cause the problem displayed on
   the site. I was able to perform a database connection test and the test was successful.
   Please note that we cannot troubleshoot your coding. Please make sure that you
   are using the correct host name and login information in your coding.
 * How do I fix this situation? Are passwords different from wordpress.org forums
   and the actual database? If there is somewhere I can manually change my password
   in the coding…

 * there is no connection between your password here, and the one used on your site.
   How could there be?
 * If you changed your MySQL password you need to edit your wp-config.php to reflect
   the new password.
