    FYI, [you shouldn't use `mysql_*` functions in new code](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12859942/). They are no longer maintained [and are officially deprecated](https://wiki.php.net/rfc/mysql_deprecation). See the [red box](http://php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php)? Learn about [*prepared statements*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prepared_statement) instead, and use [PDO](http://php.net/pdo) or [MySQLi](http://php.net/mysqli) - [this article](http://php.net/manual/en/mysqlinfo.api.choosing.php) will help you decide which one is best for you. – John Conde Aug 02 '17 at 18:31

    You have the wrong password, or the IP address you're connecting from doesn't have permission to connect to MySQL. – ceejayoz Aug 02 '17 at 18:34

Access denied for user 'msuparam_17'@'localhost'

Access denied means that you were able to establish a connection to the server, but it has rejected your credentials.

Either you have typed the wrong username, the wrong password, or this user does not actually have privileges to login.

If you can login to the database as an authorized user, verify this user actually exists, and is permitted to login.

mysql -u root -p
Password:
mysql> use mysql;

# Verify user actually exists
mysql> SELECT User,Host FROM user WHERE User="msuparam_17";

# Check permission for user
mysql> SHOW GRANTS FOR 'msuparam_17'@'localhost';
