KnuckleDragger Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I am doing a "cut-and-paste" of a working website in an attempt to get a new site up and running quickly. The new site works against the original database schema. But if I try to use the newly created user account and schema, I get the "Unable to connect to database server!" die message. I am able to connect and query oscommerce data using the new user account/schema using the MySql command line tool and query brower. I have placed an ECHO statement immediately before the tep_db_connect() call in application_top.php to confirm the correctness of the server name, user name, password, and database name. What on earth have I forgotten? Thanks, Chris Lincoln Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnuckleDragger Posted August 19, 2005 Author Share Posted August 19, 2005 This issue is resolved. I forgot to use OLD_PASSWORD() when setting up the new account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
