Re: mySQL wont connect

Kyle, If you are absolutely sure that your username and password is correct.......You are sure arn't you ? Try changing "P500.MSHOME.NET" to either "localhost" or "127.0.0.1" Most likely the MySQL admin dude has set it so that you can only connect to MySQL from the machine itself Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kyle Smith" <dbzno1fan@hotmail.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2001 11:59 PM Subject: [PHP] mySQL wont connect Well it wont! i get the error message "Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Access denied for user: 'test@P500' (Using password: YES) in C:\apache\htdocs\php+mysql\connect.php on line 2 Could not connect" When using "<?php $link = mysql_connect ("P500.MSHOME.NET", "test", "pass") or die ("Could not connect"); print ("Connected successfully"); ?>" Please tell me its omething really simple.... please! -lk6- http://www.StupeedStudios.f2s.com Home of the burning lego man!
