If it was successful in connecting, why would it say access denied ?
Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

Are you using different software to connect to the db?

I have had a case when using a login with read/write access to my db from SQLYog where my ISP login automatically gets added to the db username I entered, and I get the same error. Yet that user works fine from the web. When I change my SQLYog username to a db user with full access, everything goes like clockwork.

I hope this makes sense! ;-)
