Greetings to the community. I have tried to change the password in mySQL, but I cannot modify config.inc.php due to a permissions issue.
The file is not locked, however. After reading a lot of threads, the suggestions were to sudo nano the file in Terminal, or chmod various numbers (0755, 644), solutions that have worked for some users, but unfortunately not for me.
Last thing I checked was an extra layer of security in macOS El Capitan and forth, SIL (Security Integrity Level).
Does anybody have a clue?
