Where to Find Your Database Credentials in Joomla

If you have changed your database password in ServerPilot, you will also need to change it in Joomla's code for your app to run correctly.

First, open your Joomla app's configuration.php file, located at

apps/APPNAME/public/configuration.php

Then, scroll down until you see the line

public $dbtype = 'mysqli';

Here you'll see where to edit your database credentials.
