Hi
I hope someone might be able to help me.
I have installed XAMPP on Windows 7 and have been working all day trying to get a connection to a database I created. I have checked and checked again that all my permissions are correct and that the user name & password I was using but I kept getting
Connected successsfullycant use <nameofmydatabase>: Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database '<nameofmydatabase>'
However, when I substituted the name of my database for the preinstalled "test" database that came with XAMPP, I got a successful connection. Does anyone know why this might be?
Will it be ok to populate the "test" database with my tables seeing as it is the only way I can get the connection to work?
Hoping someone might be able to shed some light.
Thanks
