Could not connect: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'

Could not connect: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

This error is from

Code:

mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "dog")

I'm not using the password "YES". Anyone know what's up?

This is from the config.inc.php

Code:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'dog';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = true;

Try 127.0.0.1

And your password might be wrong.

I tried 127.0.0.1 and got the same error. How would my password be wrong if in my config file it says that it is dog?

If you could post the part of the code which is connecting to the database, it could be something wrong in that code.
Are you using a already written code, or are you writting the code?
Just a thought, but are you sure that the database has a password!

Yep, it doesn't have a password. Thanks
