MySQLI 28000/1045 Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'

Question

I am having some trouble. So I am trying to connect to my database using MySQLi, but I am getting this error:

Warning: mysqli::mysqli(): (28000/1045): Acces         


        

Answer 1

The reason of the error is here:

class Routing {
    public function __construct($route) {
        $this->users = new Users();//<-?
        $this->route = $route;
    }

You are not passing a parameter to Users.__construct($db)

Define an array with credentials and pass is like this:

class Routing {
    public function __construct($route) {
        $db = array();
        $db['host'] = 'localhost';
        $db['user'] = 'venge_main';
        $db['pass'] = 'fakepassword';
        $db['name'] = 'venge_panel';

        $this->users = new Users($db);
        $this->route = $route;
    }

Or use a global $db variable instead of defining it locally, like I did. But you must pass it to constructor when creating Users object.

Error in global.php

$users = new Users($database);

I think, it must be:

$users = new Users($db);

If $db is defined in that file.
