I forgot my database password and wanted to check phpMyAdmin. So I changed the password.

Now when I got to my site: http://www.omega-dev.net/forums/index.php I can't connect, MySQL error.

I assume it is due to the password change.

But... what do I do then?

Change the password on the database details under inc/config.php
