phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.
Can anyone please help to correct this issue and any suggestions on how to keep the error from continuing to return?
