    Cpanel/WHM password is not the same as the mysql root pass.

    When you click on change password, there is a buttom called sync passwords with mysql, click that and then job done,

    OR

    You can do what another user has said and make a new user in mysql.

    I know that, thanks but I am not asking for help, I am just criticizing the fact that you have to know the old password in order to reset it. It does not make any sense.

    Also, It is not a good idea to have both cpanel and mysql passwords synchronized, It's actually a documented security issue.

    login to cpanel and from there change the pass word easily, of your db username, you can change all the passwords, if you can solve it, re create the mysql database..
