    mysql -uroot -p

    CREATE USER 'username'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

    CREATE USER 'username'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

    GRANT ALL ON database_name.* TO 'username'@'%';

    So could you check, if your Server of the Website is allowed in the SQL-Server, you can check that on the sql-console with the following command.

    SELECT Host, User FROM mysql.user;

    See here https://mariadb.com/kb/en/create-user/#host-name-component for detailed information.

    If there is still a Problem, maybe it is your /etc/mysql/my.cnf-File
    See here: MySQL Error: : 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'

    The problem here is incorrect username and password, check your username and password details again

    You could also go to c:xamppphpmyadminconfig.inc.php

    Check for
    $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] and $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password']

    You should see your phpmyadmin username and password.

    This means that the user has no access. This can be fixed in the following ways

    insert into mysql.user (Host, User, Password) VALUES ('%', 'root', password('setyourpasswordhere'));
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' WITH GRANT OPTION;

    or if you are using SQL workbench, you can create an user under

    Adminstration --> users and previlages --> click on Add account button and create a new user, with hosts as **%** and grant the previlages in Adminstrative roles, schema previalges tabs.
