mysqli连接-如何创建用户名和密码？ Windows Server 2008

Question

I am trying to incorporate mysql with a mobile app.

I just added the mySQLi php extension to my windows server 2008, but cannot figure out how to connect with the php code: $this->db = new mysqli('localhost', 'admin', 'XXXXX', 'admin_mySQL'); This code is on a php file which is hosted on my server.

I receive this feedback when I try to log in using the username and password I use to connect to the server through remote desktop: Warning: mysqli::mysqli() [mysqli.mysqli]: (28000/1045): Access denied for user 'admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

I receive this feedback when I try to log in using the username and password I have set up for database access in Plesk Panel: Invalid request

I am not sure if the problem is my user name and password or if I have set up something wrong or have the wrong settings on my server. What can I do to check the problem and correct it?

Thanks

If you work with plesk, the first thing to ask is, have you created a user and database in the database control panel of your Plesk?

When you select a domain, you have a bunch of icons, in there you have "databases". Inside databases, you can create users at first if i'm not wrong, and then you create the databases, not sure tho, i haven't work with Horriplesk in a while ;)
