I'm getting this message when testing to see if i am able to connect to mysql server...

Cannot connect to Mysql server.Access denied for user: 'cataloguepublishers@officehost.com' (Using password: YES)

This is my code below:

<?php
$host = "cataloguepublishers.biz";
$user = "sevtech";
$pass = "sevtech18";

$database = "bpa";
$connection = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die("Cannot connect to Mysql server." .mysql_error());

mysql_close($connection);
?>

any help pls?

I've tried changing the privileges using the phpmyadmin..i also have created a database and a table...i don't know what i'm doing wrong...

what i'm trying to do is be able to connect to mysql server from cataloguepublishers.biz domain...but, unfortunately, i'm getting this message that i am not able to connect to mysql server...

Are you sure that MySQL connections for this user is opened to outside? Usually, conections are limited to localhost for security reasons. Ask your host
