Solution

"Access denied" means that access to the database was not granted for one of the following reasons:

  • The server name is wrong: Very often, users do not enter "localhost" as the server name, but their domain name or host name. But this corresponds to a remote connection, for which the database user needs special permissions.
  • The port is redundant or false: there is a port specified behind the server name (e.g. :3306) where none may be specified, or an incorrect port is specified (e.g. :3333).
  • The database name is wrong.
  • The username is wrong.
  • The password is wrong.
  • The database on a remote server does not allow remote connection.
  • The database user on the remote server has no permission for a remote connection.
