Ändern des MySQL/MariaDB-Benutzerpassworts

This guide explains how to change the password of a MySQL/MariaDB database on an Infomaniak Web Hosting.

Introduction

• Please refer to this other guide if you are looking for information on updating login information (scripts, websites...) related to a database password change.
• A database user created after installing a Web Application (offered by Infomaniak) cannot be modified (a lock icon appears next to it, see point 5 below).
• To access the database it is attached to, you must create a new database user with your chosen password and then assign rights to the desired database.

To do this, you need to modify the user attached to the database in question and change their password (without needing to provide the old one) from the Infomaniak Manager:

2. Click directly on the name assigned to the relevant product.
3. Click on Databases in the left menu.
4. Click on the Users tab.
5. Click on the action menu ⋮ located to the right of the relevant item.
6. Click on Edit:
   
7. Click on Change Password.
8. Enter the desired new password.
9. Click the Save button:
   
10. If necessary, you can configure the new rights for access to existing databases on the hosting.
