Kai Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 My database which was working perfectly yesterday now won\'t let me \"Insert data from a textfile into table\" on the SQL tab in phpMyAdmin. I get the following error: MySQL said: Access denied for user: \'myusername@localhost\' (Using password: YES) Do you think this is a transient problem since it was working yesterday?

phpfreak Posted May 5, 2003 Share Posted May 5, 2003 If you haven\'t changed anything from the default installation, use the username: root and no password. Good luck!

Kai Posted May 5, 2003 Author Share Posted May 5, 2003 Thanks :-) The thing is it doesn\'t ask me for my username or pwd at any point. I log into cPanel with my normal site username and pwd, go to phpmyadmin, click on the database I want and the table I want, all as usual. I click on SQL and \"Insert data into table from text file\" and pop the same options in I normally do. Then I click insert and I get that error. I\'m not really sure what\'s going on... I might try deleting my cookies to see if refreshing them helps... Edit - nope didn\'t help.

phpfreak Posted May 5, 2003 Share Posted May 5, 2003 If you are using CPanel, I would contact your web hosting provider and ask them what the username and password is. Chances are, it\'s the same as your login. It might be [email protected] for the username and your CPanel password.
