NodeJS/mySQL - ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Question

I am attempting to connect to mySQL through a NodeJS file, but I receive the following error:

{ Error: ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR: Access denied for user \'root\         


        

Answer 1

For me the problem was having inside the SQL connection object pass: 'mypassword' instead of password: 'mypassword'.
