XF 1.5 Can't Connect to mySQL Database

[kingjavo]

I'm trying to migrate my XF site to a new host for weeks now and I can't seem to get access to mySQL database to backup. I've downloaded the library/config.php file and tried using those credentials, but I must be doing something wrong.

I've attempted various tools and not had ANY luck.

Can someone PLEASE help?

how you tried through command line or through control panel of hosting.

which type of hosting you have.

Do you have cPanel?

This has been resolved.

If anyone else only has FTP access and needs to back up their MySQL database on a server with PHP 7, you can use this version of MySQLDumper that is compatible - https://github.com/DSB/MySQLDumper
