SpaceMonkeyX Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Help! I'm an old school WordPress user who is trying to update to the newest version. Everything seems fine until I try to import my backed up database of old entries, comments, and categories. I've tried importing it two ways - by having MyPHP import and create the database directly from my txt backup file of the old database - by letting Fantastico create the database for me and then trying to import via MyPHP's Import feature Both times I get an error saying: Access Denied for user 'myusername'@'localhost' to database 'myusername_wrdp1' What am I doing wrong? The username shown is the only user on the database and that user has full access to the database. I even tried creating a new database using MyPHP and it gives me the same error. Yet if I create a database using MySQL, it does so with no problem. Using MySQL, though, I can't import an old database, so it doesn't do me much good. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm just glad I backed everything up before I went and did all this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Thomas Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Welcome to the forum, SpaceMonkeyX. Is the database info correctly entered in the config.php? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Welcome to the forums SpaceMonkeyX You can always upload your backup to your web space and open a ticket with the help desk and ask them to import it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
