Hello, I am trying to access my database through a PHP script and I keep getting access denied. I have double checked that my credentials are correct in my script according to my database page that has the credentials. I have already checked that my privileges are enabled for the database user. I have even tried to create a new user and I still couldn't gain access. I have access to the database through my x10 control panel and PHPMyAdmin. My script is on my x10hosting site and the files are uploaded into my x10hosting file manager.

Sounds like the config script. What are you using for the database host, localhost?

This is my script and as you can see I am using localhost.
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "qdfjfswb_ctec393";
$password = "Pa$sw0rd";
$dbname = "qdfjfswb_ctec393";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
$sql = "INSERT INTO Jobs (Job_ID, Cost, Service_Name) VALUES ('".$_POST['job_id']."', '".$_POST['cost']."', '".$_POST['service_name']."')";
if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
header("Location: confirmfp.php");
} else {
echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error;
}
$conn->close();

Looks like it should work. Requesting review via discord.
