I have a website that I am trying to install website baker on, I've done this before, and I've followed all the website baker installation guides and manuals found on the website.

So I've followed all the directions, set up a brand new database, but it's being really picky with a database that I have created (of which I named "wbadmindatabase"). It refuses to use my database, yet the database is properly set up through my hosting (because I just did it 30min before). Yet when I go to the link I have set it up with it says website under construction. When I try to go to my admin page to login is give me this PHP error code;


"Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'WBdatabaseadmin'@'72.167.232.230' (using password: YES) in /home/content/d/o/v/dovetherepy/html/framework/class.database.php on line 61
Access denied for user 'WBdatabaseadmin'@'72.167.232.230' (using password: YES)"


Does anyone know what be happening here? I'm thinking of taking the whole website offline, deleting everything on the remote server and moving it back over with a new "wb" folder. Hoping that will help. But I'm hoping someone may have the answer I need. My hosting and database is through Godaddy and I've done this before with no troubles. Anyone that can help would be awesome!

Check the database settings in the config.php file. Maybe the server name is incorrect (try "localhost"), or there is a speeling mistake in the DB_USERNAME or DB_PASSWORD (password and user name are case sensitive!).

Install Adminer (http://www.adminer.org/en/) on your webspace and check if you can login to the database with the values from the wb config file. If this doesn't work, you have definitively entered the wrong values and have to change these.

I think he is trying to connect to a MySQL database using invalid user information, or using a user name, who might not have sufficient privileges to access the database.

Did you create a WBdatabaseadmin user ?
And why are you using "WBdatabaseadmin'@'72.167.232.230'" instead of only WBdatabaseadmin ?

Did you restrict access for certain IP ranges in account admin panel ?

I think the issue is that he tries to connect to a remote MySQL Server which does not allow remote connections ...
