Basic XAMPP problem :l

[[Oli]]

Okay this is so annoying...

this is my config file:



$connect = mysql_connect("localhost","olivier","pw");
$db = mysql_select_db("2ndpanel", $connect)or die(mysql_error());


I also tried this before:



$connect = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
$db = mysql_select_db("2ndpanel", $connect)or die(mysql_error());


And I keep recieving this error even though I think all info is correct:



Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in ...


Can someone help please ? <3+rep

$mysql = mysql_connect($server, $username, $password);
$mysql = mysql_select_db($database);

$server = "localhost";
$username = "USERNAME";
$password = "PASS";
$database = "DATABASE";
$mysql = mysql_connect($server, $username, $password);
$mysql = mysql_select_db($database);


Tried that out & it's giving me the same error.

Tried, no succes :'(

I think something's wrong with xampp becouse the code to connect is fine ;l

$con = mysql_connect("127.0.0.1","root","");
mysql_select_db("databasename", $con);

You could just install WAMP

I recommend Xampp lolz Wamp Lmao,

I've used Xampp all the time never had to change it and i think you'll find my code works cos if your root never put a password ;]

I had this problem.
You know on the WinMySQLAdmin thing that comes with XAMPP? Have a look to make sure the my.ini is correctly set. You may actually need to have the password blank as it was the only way it worked for me.
Argh, if you want I'll PM you my MSN and remote assist it for you if you want?

if your running Xampp and have Apache and MySQL going go to http://127.0.0.1/phpmyadmin [http://localhost/phpmyadmin] and you can set user settings like paswords etc

None of this is working. :'(.
I have this winMySQLadmin.exe open & it sais:

user=olivier
password=pw

at the myini Setup

If I use that info it still isn't working. (same error)
