MySql Database password change what does it effect?
As an example I am trying to do a 2.12 database export of email addresses and user names but am unable to do so and most likely it is because I misplaced my password.
Currently my store works fine and I can use PHPmyadmin to look at my database but the password is encrypted.
If i set up a new password for my MySql database will it effect my store? do I need to change my config file or some other file with the new password?

Hello Traveler,
You will need to update your new Mysql password in your config.local.php file under the Database Connections section.

Thank you - new thought my old password should be there - let me go look…
Yes, it is there. Thanks again.
I was able to do my email address export once I found my password which turned out to not be the main issue at all.
I used CSCart_users
instead of cscart_users as the source table.
I had no idea that Linux was so fussy.
Now I have to edit my user list for duplicates and other issues and I should be good to go for my newsletter.
