MySQL one click app: Which password to use for what?

Posted on October 14, 2018

Hello, I’ve created a droplet with the one click app option and selected MySQL. It created a droplet with preinstalled MySQL and phpMyAdmin as it should, so everything is working smoothly, but I have a question. It saved 3 passwords in the file located at: /root/.digitalocean_password. There are three passwords:

  1. root mysql pass
  2. admin mysql pass
  3. app mysql pass What are theese passwords for? (I know, they’re passwords from different users from the database) But which password should I use for what?

Thanks for every reply, Best Regards - Jumpak
