Title: webmail "access denied"
Post by: Allan Bergmann Jensen on April 22, 2003, 11:44:38 PM

When I try to connect to webmail on my 5.6 e-smith server I get the following error:

A fatal error has occurred
object(db_error)(7) {
  ["error_message_prefix"]=>
  string(0) ""
  ["mode"]=>
  int(1)
  ["level"]=>
  int(1024)
  ["code"]=>
  int(-24)
  ["message"]=>
  string(24) "DB Error: connect failed"
  ["userinfo"]=>
  string(86) " [nativecode=Access denied for user: 'horde@localhost' (Using password: YES)] ** Array"
  ["callback"]=>
  NULL
}
[/home/httpd/html/horde/lib/Prefs/sql.php : 102]
---------
Can anybody help?
Allan

Well, either you've done something custom with the webmail system, or you've probably changed something with mysql.  Have you modified your system from stock in any way?

Yes Dan, I have changed the MySql root password - could it be the reason for my problem, and can it be solved in any way?

Well, that did not do it for me.  I have a very similar problem.  I think I caused it by copying all my database files from my old server to my new one when I upgraded.
Here is the message I get when I try to access webmail.  It is similar, but with a different error code:
A fatal error has occurred
object(db_error)(7) {
  ["error_message_prefix"]=>
  string(0) ""
  ["mode"]=>
  int(1)
  ["level"]=>
  int(1024)
  ["code"]=>
  int(-24)
  ["message"]=>
  string(24) "DB Error: connect failed"
  ["userinfo"]=>
  string(86) " [nativecode=Access denied for user: 'horde@localhost' (Using password: YES)] ** Array"
  ["callback"]=>
  NULL
}
[/home/httpd/html/horde/lib/Prefs/sql.php : 102]

And resetting the root password for mysql doesn't solve my problem.
