XF 1.3 access denied mysql

[oloman]

Hello,

I changed my server, but I get this Mysql message every time:

I played with a lot of passwords etc, but there is nothing to do. I am sure, because my login/password works with a wordpress installed on the same server.

Thank you for your help.

Confirm the details in the library/config.php file match those of the database instance on the new server.

And set up another account to use instead of root. You should NEVER be using the root account to run your site DB connection with.
