    Hi
    I have been trying to get to a database development that I have created in my Bluevoda Control Panel.
    However when I try and test the database using Dreamweaver, the only database it shows is "information_schema"

    When I enter the password for my database I get the message "access denied for user xxxxxxx_tidus @'localhost' using password: YES

    am I forgetting to do something? :confused:

    all help much appreciated


    thanks!!

    Jess

    you need to grant yourself access to the database, there are literally millions of guides out there to do this for the different database systems.

    Most database connection issues have to do with the db location or the user name and passord. Where is your db located? The error indicates its trying to connect to your machine (local host). Double check your db location and the user name and password.
