Forge server randomly disconnecting. How to reset/change Forge server credentials?

I installed Forge/Horizon and my project on DO droplet and i was using sometimes some commands by SSH.

Connection with server was ok and stable. I mistakenly while adding some tracking functionalites of DO by SSH entered 3times the wrong Forge password with a warning displayed. However I was able to try a 4th time a password which was the good one.

But since this experience, my server periodically and randomly shut down connection failing my deployment process or my connection with MySQL Workbench, requiring me to reboot the server to re establish it.

Did someone encountered same issue? I am wondering if I need to delete my droplet and reinstall it to make it disappear... I would like to try to reset/change Forge server credentials before

I'd say try support by contacting Taylor.

Create a new user with forge - MySQL tab

SSH and reset your MySQL password
