Cant login via phpMyAdmin after update to 16.2 from 16.0
Did a backup.
Ran windows installer for 16.2 and update went smoothly. Tested system, all appears to work well.
Went to Backup database since it was now updated.
I have always had to do it via http://127.0.0.1/phpmyadmin/ and manually backup.
I get the login screen and it even appears to save my login and password for root just like it always has.
But when logging in I get "Cannot log in to the MySQL server".
I re-entered password and still get same error.
Did the update change my root password? I have no way to do backups now or access the databaae manually.
Please help! I have a 2G+ database with over 22000 items with images, over 3500 customers, etc that I really want to be able to do regular backups.

You need to look in c:/phppos/apps/phppos/htdocs/database.php for username and password. Root password is changed randomly
You can always do a backup via store config -> backup database -> option 1
Since day one the other options just result in a blank screen for me.
Also, that file doesn't seem to exist?
found it at c:/phppos/apps/phppos/htdocs/application/config/database.php
Are you table to login now?
No, the login/pass in that file does not authenticate. I guess I need to try and reset my root password manually but am afraid it will break the POS. I have no idea what login the system is currently using to access the database.
The username is bn_phppos and password is not including the quotes in the file. They have to work as that is how the pos connects
