hi @clarkej
thanks for your help , if i reset root password of mysql , do i need to enter new root password in any config file of erpnext ?

no, the root password is not stored anywhere that I am aware (except in encrypted form?)

the db_password in site_config.json is all that is required to access the db_name database instance

frappe@erpnext:~/frappe-bench$ find . -name ‘site_config.json’ | xargs grep db_
