I am trying to connect my Database on PhpMyAdmin with my webPage. However I keep getting this error:
Connection failed: Access denied for user 'root'#'localhost' (using password: NO)
My code (php) is:
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
$dbname = "db_client2";
$conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if (!$conn) {
die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
}
?>
I do not understand what is wrong:

Hope you can help me, thank you in advance.
Please enter a password to the phpcode $password = "";
phpmyadmin disabled root login by default.
If you want to allow root login you will have to update /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php and set
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowRoot'] = TRUE;
Also mysql change the ability to login from root out of the shell.
please see this link https://askubuntu.com/questions/763336/cannot-enter-phpmyadmin-as-root-mysql-5-7
The recommendation is to create an account other than root and grant all privileges.

So, I'm SUPER new to mySQL. Having issues connecting to my database with PHP. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
I can login to our Cpanel using my username/password. Using the web gui I was able to create a database.
Now when I try to connect to the database (or even just the server for that matter) using PHP I get an error:
Warning: mysqli::__construct(): (HY000/1045): Access denied for user 'username'#'servername' (using password: YES) in /home/ropepart/public_html/techportal/sandbox/mysqltest.php on line 8
Connection failed: Access denied for user 'username'#'servername' (using password: YES)
To me, it seems like this is a username/password error. But I an using the same username/password that I use to login to the web gui. Why can I successfully login there, but can't login with PHP?
Here's my code (taken pretty much directly from W3Schools):
<?php
$servername = "servername";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "Connected successfully";
?>
(Hopefully it's obvious that I've changed my servername/username/password for the purposes of this post)
Check the details correctly, By deafult
host = localhost
username = root
password = (No password leave it as empty)
database = (your database)
<?php
$connection = new mysqli('host','username','password','your_database');
if($connection->connect_error || $connection->error){
echo "error";
}else{
echo "done";
}
?>
you should add database name.
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
$dbname = "demo"
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password,$dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "Connected successfully";
?>
//if you are using xampp you shoul locate this file you get information from this
passwords.txt
MySQL database username/password is not necessarily same as cPanel username & password.
Here is what you should do:
Login to your cPanel
From dashboard click "MySQL® Databases"
Add a new user from there (https://prnt.sc/kpiby9). Just fill username
and password (note down the password).
Add that user with your database by selecting both from the dropdown
(https://prnt.sc/kpidqx)
Now, use this username & password to connect with the database.
mysqli_connect(serverhostname,username,password,dbname);
I tried using the following code in php:
<?php
$servername = "www.psgcirdask.com";
$username = "xxx"; //hidden for security purpose
$password = "password";
$dbname = "psgcilqh_calibration";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
$sql = "SELECT * FROM brands";
$result = $conn->query($sql);
$conn->close();
?>
I got an error:
Warning: mysqli::__construct(): (HY000/1045): Access denied for user 'xxx'#'157.51.147.43' (using password: YES) in C:\xampp\htdocs\justshawarmapos\checkthedatabase.php on line 9
Connection failed: Access denied for user 'xxx'#'157.51.147.43' (using password: YES)
But i use the same username and password to connect to my database in my website.I am getting this problem only when i connect using local server.
You have to enable remote access in your mysql database.
Check this link
For hostgator
Check if all the infos provided are correct especially the servername then try to figure out if you have the right permission to access that database with that user!
This is my very first time uploading a website. now I'm having a problem with my hosting which is CPANEL.
I'm using the code
<?php
date_default_timezone_set("Asia/Manila");
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
$db = "exampledb";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password,$db);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
?>
for my database connection.
Now my problem is what code should I put in servername? instead of localhost?
and same to the username root and password?
On the hosting site in cpanel they normally give you the server name that you can use, the password you will need to create a db user also on cpanel, this will be your user name and password.
// localhost is fine or else you need to keep your server IP.you can find in cpanel.
$servername = "localhost";
// if you are using database in some other server you should provide IP
// you need to create a user with required privileges then need to provide username/password
// root also fine but better create a user
$username = "root";
$password = "";
// Here you need to mention which DB you want use for your application.
$db = "exampledb";
Hey I'm connecting to a DB in PHP like I normally would, the info is all there and correct. Checked the password a few times. Is there anything here that would ruin my connection? Here's my (nice and vague) error message:
Connection failed: Access denied for user 'user'#'localhost' to database 'DB'
<?php
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
?>
<style>
</style>
<html>
<body>
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "user";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "DB";
// Create connection
$conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if (!$conn) {
die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
}
Connection failed: Access denied for user 'user'#'localhost' to database 'DB'
Nope thats not vague, its as accurate as it can get. User user does not have permission to access Database DB on localhost even if the password is correct. No if else or guesses or chances of it being incorrect in thinking so.
Look at database permissions for DB
I'm trying to learn php but when I attempt to connect to a mysql database, I get this error. I don't think anything is wrong with the code itself but perhaps there is an error on the hosts side? I'm using 000webhost so.
Warning: mysqli::mysqli() [mysqli.mysqli]: (28000/1045): Access denied
for user 'a7976620_db1user'#'localhost' (using password: YES) in
/home/a7976620/public_html/index.php on line 17
Here is my php:
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "a7976620_db1user";
$password = "******";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "Connected successfully";
?>
In https://www.000webhost.com, there are two options in the cPanel:
Fix ownership and
Fix file permissions
You can apply this and it will be fine.
