(Running Zope 2.5.1, Macintosh OS X v10.1.4, MySQL 3.23.49) Last week I set up Zope/MySQL, and I was able to connect to a MySQL database using ZMySQLDA. After I restarted my server, Zope & mysqld, I could no longer connect. First, I tried to reconnect to the database (a connection was in place, I just hit the "connect" button), but I got an error message. So I deleted that database connection altogether and tried to create a new one, but I can't. When I try to "Add Z MySQL Database Connection," here are the options I use: Id: MySQL_database_connection Title: Z MySQL Database Connection Database connection String: database myname mypassword This is the error I get Error Type: OperationalError Error Value: (1045, "Access denied for user: 'myname@localhost' (Using password: YES)") It doesn't matter which user I use, I always get this error. It also doesn't matter which database I'm trying to connect to. I know MySQL is running and the databases in question are working fine because I can connect to them and make changes with phpMyAdmin, and I can connect & edit them directly from the command line. I've tried all of my usernames and passwords, I've even reset them with phpMyAdmin, just to be sure. Help! Any hints?? -- Chris Africa University of Michigan College of Engineering Department of Mechanical Engineering Webmaster/Coordinator, Information Services 734.764.8482
