admin password

Luisgon

New Pleskian
Plesk 11.0.9 - CentOS

Hi,

My admin password stopped to work.

The problem now is this: when i try to fix the admin password on plesk with:
export PSA_PASSWORD='pass'; /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/ch_admin_passwd; unset PSA_PASSWORD

Plesk starts to work well, but mysql admin password stop working...

Then when I fix the admin password directly on mysql database with:
update user set password=PASSWORD("NEWPASSWORD") where User='admin';
the plesk admin password stop working...

I already try some tutorials and the problem is always the same
Fix plesk admin password -> mysql admin password stop work
Fix mysql admin password -> Plesk admin passsword stop work

I'm getting crazy with this... any ideas?
 
Hello,

Use following utility to prompt the password for user "admin":
Code:
# /usr/local/psa/bin/admin --show-password

And you can reset the password for user "admin" through below command
Code:
# /usr/local/psa/bin//init_conf -u -passwd <new_password>
