My SQL databases are screwed up

Permalink
I have three websiteshttp://www.ewarenow.com,http://www.q-c-s.net, andhttp://www.m4results.com each with its own Concrete 5 theme.

When I went to my concrete 5 CMS login on each of them I got the attached fatal error.

I then proceeded to make it worse by going to the tools for my hosting (cpanel) and setting a new password for each of the three databases.

Now, many of my pages don't work because they need to access the databases.

1. How do I make the passwords match the ones built into my themes as installed?
2. After that, how do I solve the problem of the fatal error when I try to search for updates to my themes?

Thanks much for any help you can give this dummy.

hi,
you need to make sure that your database password in your site config file matches whatever you changed your mysql password to for each database in cpanel.

If you are using 5.6 or lower that will be /config/site.php
if 5.7 /application/config/database.php
