Viewing my changes on localhost

[Guest]

When I try to view what i adjusted to oscommerce on my localhost i receive the following warning:

 

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'rarefinds'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\sites-oscomm\includes\functions\database.php on line 19

Unable to connect to database server!

 

When I go to that folder and to line 19 it shows me the following:(starting with line 16-19)

 

if (USE_PCONNECT == 'true') {

$$link = mysql_pconnect($server, $username, $password);

} else {

$$link = mysql_connect($server, $username, $password);

 

I have a username and a blank password for my sql is this what it is asking? Do I need to place "localhost" as the server?

 

I am a newby and trying to feel myy way through this. Everytime I figure one error out there is another. I hope someone can help me through this.

 

Thank you.

Have you looked at page 78 of the documentation?

 

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'username@localhost' (Using

password: YES) in /home/username/public_html/shop/includes/functions/database.php

on line 19

Unable to connect to database server!

 

Even if you had it wouldn't tell you there are 2 configuration.php files that need editing to have the correct user name and password.

 

Enjoy
