Lynae Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I am working on Script 12.1 and I get an error message: Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'Lynae'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in C:\xampp\htdocs\mysql_connect.php on line 14 Could not connect to MySQL. What file is this trying to access when verifying my localhost, username, and password? I have played around with my php.ini and my.ini and neither one seems to effect it. MySQL is running. I also tried this path to access MySQL: C:\xampp\mysql\bin\mysql -u Lynae -p password: I have tried no password, the password that I manually entered in the php.ini and bin\my.ini files. Nothing works. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynae Posted November 20, 2011 Author Share Posted November 20, 2011 I got my script to work by: leaving my mysql_start.bat open and I looked up the standard values for the user id and the password. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
