Everytime i try to install my web base and i get to the point where i need to put in my mysql database username and database name, i end up with this error.
Access denied for user 'db3admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
I've created websites using this methods numerous times, but for some reason, its not going smoothly today. I've tried entering the username and db name alone and i've tried putting serveentertainment_ before both the username and dbname and i'm still unsuccessful. Can anyone help?
I am having the same problem I think. It wont let me log into phpmyadmin at all.
Also I was told that your username can't be more then 15 characters.

In the past if memory serves me correctly, i've never had to prefix my username. So i'm not sure what's going on. But if more than one person is having this issue. It must be server side, as i was thinking myself, but was hoping i was wrong.

Hello there,
I don't think that the server have a problem because i have not encountered any problem with my DB web at all, So i suggest to still limit the character to 15.

Your site name "serveentertainment_" is too long. It's 19 characters and your site name has to be 14 characters or less because the database name (or username) has to be 16 characters all in all. For example, my site name is "sugarblossoms". That's 13 characters. Add the underscore (_), it would be 14 characters now. Since I can only have 16 characters all in all, I can only add 2 more characters for my db username (same for db name.) So all I can create is something like "sugarblossoms_db" or "sugarblossoms_gb" So my config looks something like this:
DB USERNAME: sugarblossoms_db
DB USER: sugarblossoms_nm
HOST: localhost
PASSWORD: mypassword
If you're trying to login into your phyadmin, how did you do it? To login, use your sitename_dbuser and your password to the database. With the example above, I would type "sugarblossoms_nm" for User Name, and "mypassword" for Password.
Hope that helps.
What sugarblossoms said is correct. If you are set on having that sitename you can follow my directions in this post to be able to keep the same site name but have a working database name.

And on Zymic servers you have to have the prefix otherwise it won't work. (It's like that on most shared hosting)
