O.P. Cpanel>MYSQL Root pass?
Is there a way to find out what the root password for Mysql? I am running cpanel, and need the root password but have no idea what it is or where I can get it off my server. I need this for a script like phpmyadmin to manage databases.
Yes, I know phpmyadmin is installed..this is for something else. I need the root password.

then you can't get the root username or password.

There's no way I can do this at all? I would be getting a custom script from someone that would add/delete databases for my hosting, but I need the root password

if you're on shared hosting, then you don't even own the mysql database, so if you had the root password, you would be able to access everyone's databases, even ones that aren't yours :/ Spoiler: the game.

just create a second user (named "louhabs_root" or something) that has "ALL" permission to every database you've got set up. Spoiler: the game.
