Question

I am trying to test out redbeanphp and tried implementing it on xampp with my mac.
However it seems like there is something wrong with my pdo.
I’ve checked that a pdo driver for mysql is set up using phpinfo.
Can anyone please provide some insights or some directions on why this is happening.

Thanks in advance!

The code I am using is:

<?php
require('rb.php');
R::setup('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=hoodajax');
$book = R::dispense( 'book' );
$book->title = 'Boost development with RedBeanPHP';
$book->author = 'Charles Xavier'; 
$id = R::store($book);
$book = R::load('book', $id);
echo $book->title;
R::close();
?>

The error that is being displayed is:

Answer 1

The error message is self explanatory:

Access denied for user ”@’localhost’ to database ‘hoodajax’

You haven’t specified a user name for the DB access.
