I uploaded my site (using filezilla) using php / mysql. In localhost it works perfectly but not on external server. The following error appears:
SQLSTATE [HY000] [1045] Access denied for user 'root' @ 'localhost
<?php
try {
$pdo = new PDO ('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=***', '***', '***');
}
catch (PDOException $e) {
exit('Database error.');
}
?>
What could be missing?
The message identifies that access was denied to user root in localhost .
This means that your host is correct, and you are getting to the bank, but he is not recognizing your bank and / or user and / or password as valid.
Check the provider for the correct MySQL access data and enter in the fields.
Change the location of the bank, it should be as localhost, when you upload the application, have to change, and put the external link of the bank.
