Log in denied after several attempts

Hello,

I believe the admin password to our site was changed by another user and I was having problems logging in. I tried several times before trying the forgotten password link. I guess I tried 1 too many times and now I cannot get in.

I followed another posting here and attempted to change the user password in the phpMyAdmin control panel, and everything seemed to be ok. But still I cannot get in. The message I get is as follows:


Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'xxxxxxx'@'1xx.1xx.2x.2x' (using password: YES) in /home/content/15/9564415/html/system/database/mysql.php on line 6
Error: Could not make a database connection using xxxxxx@xxxxxx.db.9564415.hostedresource.com
Warning: mysql_close() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/content/15/9564415/html/system/database/mysql.php on line 66

Will this reset after a while on it's own, or is there something I can do?? I'm using OC 1.5.0

Thank you

Additional information..... I contacted GoDaddy on this and the connection stream was broken due to the password change (I don't entirely understand this, but that is what they said) and they were able to fix it. I can know log into the OC Admin Panel of the site, but the site itself still produces this error when anyone goes to the site. I could really use some help if anyone can please offer a hand.

Problem solved. It was the password contained in the config.php file.......
