Hi,
I navigate to the Drupal folder an run: drush up
And get this error Command pm-update needs a higher bootstrap level to run - you will need to invoke drush from a more functional Drupal environment to [error] run this command. The drush command ‘up’ could not be executed. [error] Drush was not able to start (bootstrap) the Drupal database. [error]
- drush status reports everything correctly
- i can connect to mysql via cli
I’ve read somewhere that if cli/php.ini and fpm/php.ini are in different places, drush won’t work but I can’t see exactly why. Any help?

It seems to me, better to add line
user=rootinto the/root/.my.cnffile instead of renaming it. This will allow you to be able both update drupal and login to mysql cli without typing password.I figure the problem out.
Drush db connection is superseded by the .my.cnf located in the /root folder that allows the root user direct connection to mysql.
However since drush tries to connect to drupal@localhost that has a different password, it fails with Access denied for user ‘drupal’@‘localhost’.
Moving .my.cnf out of the way solves the problem.
