You mentioned changing your password in relation to a script authorisation. Granted this a different program you are using, but with MySQL for example, if you change the password for your MySQL log in with your server-side software, you also need to go in and edit the relevant config file in your arcade or php software to reflect the change.

Because the password has changed at your host end, your software is still sending the previous password when it tries to transfer data about.

With php it is usually the [root]/config.php file.

Check that out, put in the new password you gave your server-side and then upload the new file.

You will get all sorts of errors if that's wrong. lol.

A note on that though; if it is the config.php file you need to edit, or file written by the server software, you will need to download the online version and edit that one.

The local file will probably have nothing in it.

I don't know your package, but it will be a config file that handles passwords.
