Upgrade from 1.3 to 1.3.1 fails with bad mysql login ...

Post by epo »

Decided to upgrade from 1.3 to 1.3.1 to see if it fixed a problem I'm having on centos 5.2.

Proceeded as follows:

untar'd the full 1.3.1 archive over my existing cmsms directory, verified that config.php was untouched.

went to mysite/install/upgrade.php and was greeted with:

Database Connection Failed
Error: Access denied for user 'cms'@'localhost' (using password: YES) (1045)
Function Performed: CONNECT
Host/DB: localhost/cms
Database Type: mysql

The major problem here is that I have no mysql user called 'cms'

mysql-5.0.45/php-5.1.6/centos5.2

Then you need to check your config.php as that is where it gets the call for 'where' 'how' 'what' 'who/user' to connect to the DB...
