title: Could not connect to Database: Access denied for user '***'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
body: <p>I have a domain name with GoDaddy and a shared hosting plan with Plesk.</p>
  
  <p>I have a development environment on my local computer using WAMP in where I've established a database connection locally.</p>
  
  <p>Now that I've uploaded all the necessary files to Plesk (index.php, db_connect.php) I've created a new database through the Plesk control panel AND a default user for said database.  In my db_connect.php file I've set the host name to 'localhost', for db_user, the name of the user I created, for db_pass, the password I created, and finally the name of the database I've created.</p>
  
  <p>When I go attempt to run my php script over the hosting server I keep getting the same error message: </p>
  
  <p>Could not connect to Database: Access denied for user '***'@'localhost' (using password: YES)</p>
  
  <p>I've spent the last day and half reading the other posts related to this but to no avail.  I've also tried accessing the mysql root user through the SQL query panel on the Plesk phpmyadmin application but I keep getting a syntax error.  When I run queries like SHOW USER() and SHOW CURRENT_USER() all the information comes back to me correct but my access is still denied.  </p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?  I am a beginner programmer.  Any help would be appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you!</p>
