Moving to another Server

[deejay_shades]

Hey,

Can anyone tell me if I can move my install to another server that has MariaDB on. The Database version on the new server is MariaDB 10.1 and on the old server it is Mysql 5.6.

I've copied the entire site over to the new server and also exported the database and then updated the local.xml file with the new database connection settings but I'm still getting "access denied for user" I have double checked the username, password and database name that is all correct. Is this due to trying to use MariaDB

The version of Magento Installed is version 1.9.3

Hi @deejay_shades,

That error message means the user, host and password used into app/etc/local.xml for the database isn't correct.

Can you check your database credentials?

I have checked these multiple times

Hi @deejay_shades,

Can you check accross the xml files where are those wrong credentials?

Did you clear your cache so it can load the new settings?
