Sometimes, after transferring or setting up hosting, we get a database error on the site. One of the reasons may be incorrect database data in the configuration file or insufficient rights of this user for the database.

Here we will talk about the way to change a password and privileges for a database user.

Open the hosting control panel DirectAdmin. Place the cursor over the first menu item "Account Manager" and select "MySQL Management".

Click on the name of the database, the user for which we are interested in.
