Problem with website on localhost

[Popi]

Hello,

I have set up a website on localhost which im working on right now.

Everytime for instance if I try to backup with "BackUpWordPress" plugin it says the following:

• Mysqldump: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'wordpressuser252'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Also sometimes when Im trying to manually backup or overwrite something then I do not have access also. I've set full-control for the folder which the website is installed in.

What should I do?

How have you setup the database? Do you have the correct password for it?

[Popi]

Yes I have correct password for it. I set up the localhost website with Wordpress, which I downloaded from Web Platform Installer, the database was created by the wordpress installer automatically.

I know you an connect to a database with the wordpress installer, i don't know 

about it making it?

 

This user though "wordpressuser252", are you sure it is the root user, or has
all the privileges needed?

 

The files are also being dumped in a location where your current user has all

the privileges needed to create files and such?

 

Try adding a -p parameter to prompt you for a password when doing it manually.

If you aren't already doing that, and try running command prompt in admin mode

or sudo. 

 

Don't know how you are running this, if you are on windows, linux or what?

Its fixed now, deleted everything and set up wordpress again. Running on Windows Server 2012 R2
