Re: [Slashcode-general] DBIx-Password: Access denied for virtual user to database

[Marc G. F. <sc...@hu...>]

These may be obvious, but since you don't mention, will ask:

If you do:

    mysql -u xlash -h localhost -p xlash

can you connect to the database?

Based on the 'Access denied for user' error message, I suspect the answer 
to the above will be no ... but, need to eliminate that first ...
