I had an issue with MySQL and the freepbxuser pw being out of sync (they weren’t, updating the pw to match the freepbx.conf file yielded 0 changes).
Long story short, I ran the following two commands (which made about 54 changes):
update freepbx_settings SET value = ‘’ WHERE value = ‘[Old Password]’;
update freepbx_settings SET value = ‘[Old Password]’ WHERE value = ‘’;
This restored database connectivity, and got everything back up and running. No problems yet, but I have a concerning message on the Dashboard:
The name of the script on the error is the password I ran through the update command. I think when I ran the command I overwrote something I shouldn’t have, but am not sure where to look to fix this? Any ideas what script name I overwrote? Where are the “freepbx_settings” in the MySQL dB?
Okay, so I found the table “freepbx_settings” in “asterisk” dB, but there are no fields with the value of the old password/name of the script on the dashboard error. Ill keep poking around.
Well, for what it’s worth, I think the SQL query updated more than it should have with the query you used. For Example, these are all the rows that I have where the value is empty:
MariaDB [asterisk]> select keyword,type,value from freepbx_settings where value='';

The sql executed above would have overwritten all of the values for these and set them to the old password. I’m not sure that’s correct.
I reversed the step (from old pw to blank), and looking over the table I do not see the old pw as a value anywhere. I rebooted and saw the error, but maybe it is an old error.
