PHP w/ MySQL

Hi All, I've been struggling w/ this problem for several months now on and off. I've exhausted my capabilities and would appreciate any help. The problem I'm having is using PHP to access a MySQL database through the web page. Version Info: PHP 4.3 Apache 1.3.24 MySQL 3.23.49a-1. Red Hat 7.2 (default 2.4.7-10 kernel) Although RedHat installed Apache, PHP, and MySQL, I removed them and installed newer versions. I configured Apache to use PHP, and it seems to work (I created a few simple scripts and viewed them across the internet). I also setup MySQL w/ a user who has access from the local loopback as well as external addresses. I tested the new user on the local machine with: > mysql -h localhost -u dbuser01 -p testpwd Everything works fine. The user can access the database, and perform operations. So far, so good. Now I setup a PHP script to access the database. The pertinent lines are: phpinfo(); $link = mysql_connect("localhost", "dbuser01", "testpwd") or die ("Could not connect to database"); But I get an error: Warning: Access denied for user: 'dbuser01@nimble' (Using password: YES) in /home/.../index.php on line 7 Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Access denied for user: 'dbuser01@nimble' (Using password: YES) in /home/.../index.php on line 7 Could not connect to database If the output of phpinfo() will help, you can find it at: http://www.wheeloyum.com/index2.php I appreciate any and all help.
