    Change Database Password

    How can i change the password for the MySQL database in joomla? I know where i can change it on my 1and1 hosting but if i change it im guessing it will break the website!

    I have stupidly misplaced my notes where i wrote down what the password was when i set it up

    Do you have FTP access? If so the password will be in one of the config files I would imagine
