phpBB denied access

Post by drpalm »

Not sure where I should post this, but I installed phpBB on http://bcgnetwork.site.nfoservers.com/ and I get an error saying
"General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]

Access denied for user 'garrysmod'@'localhost' (using password: YES) [1045]"
Anyone know what might be going on? Thanks in advance.

You are likely using the wrong username and password for MySQL.

Be sure you are using the credentials listed on the Databases tab of your webhosting panel.
