Hi Folks I am having some troubles getting XAMPP to work with Cartweaver3
I make a new user in MySQL and give it a password no problem setup Cartweaver give it the username and password let it make a new database as normal then I go to the normal index page and view it I get this warning message


Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\cw_test\cw3\CWLibrary\CWDBMySQL.php on line 123

Fatal error: Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\cw_test\cw3\CWLibrary\CWDBMySQL.php on line 123

I am a bit confused on what the problem is can you give me some advice on this? If you like I can post the code from the CWDBMySql.php if needed.

Take care

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\cw_test\cw3\CWLibrary\CWDBMySQL.php on line 123

This script is not using a configured username/password.

i'm no expert but it sounds like you have put the wrong settings in your database config file or database connection which ever one you have used.

have you tried it with a blank password?

Hi adamjw3 thanks for the reply I think I tried that with no success. However I give it a go this evening.

Hi Wiedmann, thanks for your reply. Can you give me some more details about your remark that "This script is not using a configured username/password." I don't really understand this remark.

Well,

Here you told us, that you have configured a MySQL username in "Cartweaver".

But this "Cartweaver" script ("CWDBMySQL.php") don't use the configured username. (a mysql_connect without using a username results in the username "ODBC'@'localhost").
