I've encountered a problem with my blog thenakedhippie.com/adriensblog

I was editing the name of the blog and all of the sudden it just errored and showed the following message:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user 'thenakedhippie'@'72.167.183.43' (using password: YES) in /home/content/m/y/w/myweeklyhumor/html/adriensblog/include/db/mysql.inc.php on line 270

What do I do?

correct your mysql-password.

Hi!

Maybe your firefox password remember functionality entered the wrong password inside the mysql password field of the s9y configuration. Sadly firefox does that a lot, and inserts wrong passwords at the wrong places.

You need to enter the right password into the serendipity_config_local.inc.php file (check the FAQ on fixperm.php if you cannot edit this file)
