the database password should be contained in serendipity_config_local.inc.php

If should contain something like:

Code: Select all

	$serendipity['versionInstalled']  = '0.8';
	$serendipity['dbName']            = 'serendipity';
	$serendipity['dbPrefix']          = 'serendipity_';
	$serendipity['dbHost']            = 'localhost';
	$serendipity['dbUser']            = 'dbuser';
	$serendipity['dbPass']            = 'password';
	$serendipity['dbType']            = 'mysql';
	$serendipity['dbPersistent']      = false;
You want to change:

Code: Select all

	$serendipity['dbPass']            = 'password';
