Access denied for user

Recommended Posts

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?

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.

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 username@domain.name for the username and your CPanel password.
