mysql user acces error continues

Thorsten

Here is what I am using.

PHP version: PHP 5.0.3
MySQL client version: MySQL 4.0.18
phpMyFAQ - 1.4.7 (also tried the 1.5 beta version, same exact error)

The mysql user error makes no sense to me as I can connect to mysql using those same user/pass combinations on my server via php. I am able to successfully query a test table that I added to the db I created for this app.

all file permissions are set like this:
-rwxrwxrwx 1 admin admin 22292 5 Apr 10:50 installer.php

Still receiving this error:
"Error: Access denied for user: 'mike@localhost' (Using password: YES)"

If you can help me out with this i will definitely visit your wishlist. I am running out of time to get this working.

Thanks alot,
Mike

Hi Mike,

"Error: Access denied for user: 'mike@localhost' (Using password: YES)"

this is a MySQL error and it said that your password is wrong. Please use the correct MySQL username and the correct MySQL password with proper permissions on your selected database.

Hi,

what you can try is to loginto your console and try this:

Code: Select all

mysql -u <username> -p <password>

Then logged in, try this:

Code: Select all

USE <database name>;

If this works, try this:

Code: Select all

SHOW TABLE STATUS;

If the problem still exist, just visit in IRCNet the channel #phpmyfaq or feel free to e-mail me.

bye
Thorsten
