Title: MySQL Error 1045 - Access denied for user if0_42985516

Hello,

I am having a MySQL connection problem with my InfinityFree hosting account.

My database details are:

Host: sql300.infinityfree.com
Database: if0_42985516_darb3omar
Username: if0_42985516
Port: 3306

My website is: darb3omar.gt.tc

I tested the MySQL connection directly using PHP PDO from the website, without Laravel.

The exact error is:

SQLSTATE[HY000] [1045] Access denied for user ‘if0_42985516’@‘192.168.0.137’ (using password: YES)

I also changed my Hosting Account Password and updated the MySQL password in my PHP configuration, but the same error still occurs.

Could you please check whether the MySQL user/database permissions and password are correctly configured for my hosting account?

Thank you.

Using AI to troubleshoot things is fine, but please make sure to pay attention to what it produces. Because at the top of the file, it says this:

$host = 'sql300.infinityfree.com';
$port = 3306;
$db   = 'if0_42985516_darb3omar';
$user = 'if0_42985516';
$pass = 'YOUR_NEW_HOSTING_PASSWORD';

Where it says YOUR_NEW_HOSTING_PASSWORD, you still need to fill in the password. And I checked, but that’s not actually your password (would be hilarious if true).
