Database Connection Issue

Monica CullanMar 13 2024 — edited Mar 13 2024

<?php $servername = "localhost"; $username = "username"; $password = "password"; $database = "ytmp3_db"; // Create connection $conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $database); // Check connection if ($conn->connect_error) { die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);

Hey everyone,

I hope you're all doing well. Recently, I've been using Ytmp3 to convert some YouTube videos into MP3 format, but I've hit a roadblock. Whenever I try to convert, I keep encountering this pesky database connection error. It's been quite frustrating, to say the least.

Now, I've taken a look at the code snippet responsible for handling the database connection, and I can't seem to pinpoint what's causing the issue. Could there be something inherently wrong with this code? Or perhaps there's some data-related hiccup causing the problem?

Here are some additional details:

  • I've double-checked my database credentials, and they seem to be correct.
  • The server hosting the database is up and running without any apparent issues.
  • I've also tried restarting the server, just in case there was a temporary glitch, but the problem persists.

I'm reaching out to the community in the hopes that someone might have encountered a similar issue or might have some insights into what could be causing this database connection error. Any help or suggestions from oracle community you can provide would be immensely appreciated.
