Connection Error

I have been having trouble getting this extension to connect.

I am now getting a MySQL Error 1045 Access Denied error.

I know my username and password are correct and my ip address is whitelisted

Any ideas?

Open the Database you are trying to connect to using the hosts phpMyAdmin.

In php, myadmin, it will show the server name in the upper left hand corner, see attached screen shot for an example from my server.

make sure this is the host name you are using in the database connection

That worked!

I thought we had to use the ip address of the server instead..?

If I had a connection created already using dreamweaver, is there anything that I need to do?

it depends on the host.
