I cannot connect to the ReviewPost database.

Hi there, I'm getting the following error message:


Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'myusername'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in /home/username/public_html/ppost/pp-inc.php on line 184
I cannot connect to the ReviewPost database. [$php_errormsg]

I looked in the inc file and can see its got a $mysql_password var in there, which is probably wrong somehow. Where does this file get the password from?

I found and updated config-inc.php but that alone did not resolve the problem.

Also, I noticed that both:
config-inc.php
config-int.php

Are chmod 777. Any issues with that?

Ok, I changed both instances of password in config-inc.php and that fixed it.

Not a problem
