I was running the beta version 1.9.5 successfully about 1.5 months ago. This is in a sandbox environment. I am the only one who has touched this server from a TestLink perspective. Today I am getting the following error when I launch Testlink from both my own PC and the server. What does this error mean?

1045 - Access denied for user 'admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

You have a problem with your Database -> have you tried search with google:
1045 - Access denied for user 'admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES) ?

you will get the needed info

Turned out I missed the obvious. When in a sandbox environment always suspect your distributed colleagues of installing another Mysql for their pilot projects which have nothing to do with TestLink. And furthermore stopping your service :wink:
Is their a config file setting where I can tell Testlink to use this Mysql database and port and not that one?
