mysql_connect Error - iamthestreets - 07-06-2015 Hi, I have recently switched to a new hosting providor and cannot access my site online - production. I have setup the credentials correctly but keep getting this error: Code: Message: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'username'@'xxxx.arvixe.com' (using password: YES) My new host is Arvixe. They have been unable to help me resolve the issue and was hoping someone might have some insight on how to resolve my connection issue. If I need to provide more info, let me know. RE: mysql_connect Error - skunkbad - 07-06-2015 I think you should try to make a simple PHP script (non-CodeIgniter) and see if you can connect. It's highly unlikely that CodeIgniter is your problem. Code: $mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "user", "password", "database"); RE: mysql_connect Error - iamthestreets - 07-06-2015 Thanks! I get the same error. I will continue to work with my host. RE: mysql_connect Error - CroNiX - 07-06-2015 also, you should use mysqli driver, not the old mysql one. The mysql driver is deprecated from PHP and will be removed in a future version. |
