Hello gasguti,

That particular error message usually means that you aren't using the correct credentials (i.e user and password). Either that, or your database server has been set to not allow the use of the root account via the network socket, or at all from applications other than the command line tool running with root privileges.

I would recommend creating a new user with all privileges to the database, instead of using the root account directly.

You can find the syntax for creating a new user at the link below.
