Database error after moving website?



I just moved my website from a test domain to the actual domain and I changed the DB info in the PHP script, but I'm still getting an error even though I triple-checked that I have the correct database, host, username and password. Am I missing something? This is the code I use to connect. The database info is definitely correct.







$dbhost = "localhost";

$dbuser = "username";

$dbpass = "password";



function dbConnect($db='dbname') {

global $dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass;



$dbcnx = @mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass)

or die('Database problem.');



if ($db!='' and !@mysql_select_db($db))

die('Database not available at the moment. Please try again in a couple of minutes.');



return $dbcnx;

}







And then I call the function dbConnect('dbname') from the script. The error I get is the second error from the code above, "Database not available at the moment. Please try again in a couple of minutes.".





Can anyone see something I'm missing here?





EDIT:





The actual MySQL error is:







Access denied for user 'username'@'localhost' to database 'dbname'

  1. Sounds like it could be a permissions problem.

    Try logging in to mysql and running:

    grant all on <your db name>.* to <your user>@localhost identified by '<your password>';
    flush privileges.

  2. If you take the error suppression (@) from your code it may give you more of a clue

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
