  1. Steps to debug:

    • check if you have .env file in server/cpanel usually we don’t publish .env files on server, if you have .env file then the username in your .env file and in error is different. Looks like database configuration is inside your config/database.php file.
    • check if database credentials in config/database.php file is correct
    • if nothing works create new database and user and then change your db credential in .env file if you are using .env else update credential in config/database.php file…

  2. Use console and artisan:

    php artisan config:cache
    

    This will clear cache configuration and then new settings will work.

  3. Try to use username and password as follows with quotation. i have no idea how it worked, but it really worked for me after searching a lot.

    DB_CONNECTION=mysql
    DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
    DB_PORT=3306
    DB_DATABASE=admin_clrank
    DB_USERNAME='admin_clranke'
    DB_PASSWORD='admin@123'

  4. it can be fixed by adding a single quote on database user and password

    DB_DATABASE=admin_clrank
    DB_USERNAME='admin_clranke'
    DB_PASSWORD='admin@123'
    

    like this. it will work fine for me
