I\'ve seen a few errors like this, but I found no answer.

Unable to connect to database: Access denied for user \'\'@\'localhost\' to database \'socialdb\'
         


        

Answer 1

You did not specify a user in neither mysql_connect or your PHP configuration.

Either set mysql.default_user and mysql.default_password in your PHP configuration or use the appropriate arguments for mysql_connect.
