I forgot my mysql root password on a system I am
working on.
I reset it without any trouble, but now the wiki won't work because it
does not know the new password.
It is advisable not to use root for access to the wiki's database but
to set up a new user for that. Otherwise anybody who gains control over
your wiki, has control over your database server as well. As a change
of the root password broke the wiki, I assume that your wiki runs as
the database's root user.
