#### SQL database problem

Posted by: Ketsuban

I recently installed SMF 2.0-RC1-1 on Kanto (republicofkanto.exofire.net/forum), and now the wiki (republicofkanto.exofire.net/wiki) gives error:

> Kanto has a problem
> Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.
> Try waiting a few minutes and reloading.
> (Can't contact the database server: Access denied for user 'kanto_admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES) (localhost))

My host's (x10hosting) cPanel has no way to change or recover the MySQL database user's (kanto_admin) password (the forum has a different database and user (both kanto_forum)) and I cannot change hosts.
Help?

The SQL server may not be located at localhost. Check your host?s control panel for a domain for the database server.

It worked fine until I installed the forum, and I highly doubt the forum broke the wiki because the two have separate databases and database users.
