无法连接到Visual Studio中的MySQL数据库

Question

I have a WCF Project in Visual Studio 2010. I have a MySQL database to which I want to connect. I installed MySQL Connector 6.6.5. I click Server Explorer -> Add Connection, choose MySQL Data Provider, enter the host name, the username, password, but it doesn't connect to the database, and shows a message (when I click "Test Connection"):

"Authentication to host ** for user ** using method 'mysql_native_password' failed with message: Access denied for user * @IP_address (using password: YES)"

How can I solve this problem and connect to the database?

if you had install phpmyadmin, you can check permission and credential information please see my screenshot for detail info. I had to change my listening port to :90 cos I am also running IIS like you.You can get Xampp(to get phpmyadmin) from here. http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html
