Problems with creating new databases with PHPMyAdmin.

ze0nyx · 02-11-2005, 09:33 PM

I enter PHPMyAdmin. Then I click Databases. In the editbox I enter test and then I click Create. I get the following:

Quote:

SQL-query:

CREATE DATABASE `test` ;

MySQL said:

#1044 - Access denied for user: 'ze0nyx@localhost' to database 'test'

How can I create the database? What does this error message mean? What have I done wrong? The site is hosted at funpic.org.

You are not allowed to access the DB with that user name.

Hi,

Yeah. If you are using a shared hosting provider, in my experience they usually do not let you create new databases through PHPMyAdmin because if they do not offer unlimited MySQL databases, you usually add the database through the admin panel.
