MySQL Password-1519915687

Does anyone know of a way to get into the MySQL Administrator when the password is not known? I'm trying to upgrade a v6.1 system from 2006 and the personnell has changed and the previous admin has passed away. All of the common known passwords do not work.

Any clues appreciated,

Steve,
It is realively easy if you are comfortable hacking MySQL at the command line. However, to avoid any unneccesary angst, just open an SR and we'll get you going.

Hi there,

normally (this is what I can remember) the MySQL-password is the same as the dwadmin-Password - first set up when installing the system - but if you don't have the chance to get this then the other way is faster. I think that when installing DW internal DB "root" and <name of dwadmin> passwords are both set to <password of dwadmin>
