I'm trying to connect from my computer to my server.
I add my computer to the allowed access hosts.
And I'm able to logon correctly. But when I try to select the database I get this error:
Access denied for user 'USER'@'%' to database 'DATABASE'

Any ideas?

Ok, it seams cpanel just doesn't let you use your main login for external connections or something,

you should probably GRANT user access rights for that database

Normally I just my overall MySQL user, which has all access rights.
But it seems you can't use that one for external connections.
