[solved] Error upgrading 1.0.6->1.0.7: database pw becoming incorrect

[motokochan]

AFAIK, that isn't a hash, it's the actual password. Hashes are one-way. Without the actual password, you wouldn't be able to connect.

I ignored the first message since you are well past that stage (that first error message looks like MySQL wasn't fully up or running at that point, the later two messages are actual errors from the MySQL daemon, so it was working).

Instead of arguing, why not at least try the suggestion?
