Cannot login to oscommerce

Hello,

 

I changed my database password and my whole website is down at the moment.

 

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user 'bikersh_admin'@'ded4.hsservers.com' (using password: YES) in /hsphere/local/home/bikershop/onlinebikershop.com/catalog/includes/functions/database.php on line 19 Unable to connect to database server!

 

I am getting this error even I have configured configure.php

 

 

Can somebody give any ideas?

 

 

Thanks a lot.

If your positive your configure.php is right change it again through your host to be sure it took the first time.

The only thing I did is changing my db password.

 

This is the original one

// define our database connection

define('DB_SERVER', ''); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', '');

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '');

define('DB_DATABASE', 'osCommerce');

define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persistent connections?

define('STORE_SESSIONS', ''); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'

?>

 

I tired putting new username and password in the '' but no luck.

 

 

 

kind a frustrated!

There should be an entry in all 3 of these lines in both configure.php files

 

define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost'); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'yoursqlusername');

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'yourpasswordforsqlusername');

I am getting a similar error when I am trying to install in the first place.

 

Access denied for user '8967_os'@'unlimitedmb.com' (using password: YES)

 

There is no such address at my server as [email protected] It is [email protected]

 

Is there any way to change it to accept it?

[♥geoffreywalton]

Yes, edit both configure.php files

 

Make sure you are using the mysql user name and password and not an email address.

 

Check under priviliges in phpmyadmin and see what users are set up there.

 

define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost'); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'yoursqlusername');

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'yourpasswordforsqlusername');

I have now done exactly that. I changed the config.php in both includes and admin/includes

 

I am getting exactly the same error.

 

==

Access denied for user '8967_os'@'unlimitedmb.com' (using password: YES)

 

Please verify the connection parameters and try again.

When it asks me at the "database server" screen, I enter the database server (ns1.ulmb.com), the username (8967_os), the password, and the database name (OS)

 

Am I doing something wrong there?
