Access denied for user 'user'@'localhost' Laravel 5.8-CodePudding

I have this project running on Laravel 5.8 and Database on Mysql using XAMPP server.

This is my .env file:

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=homestead
DB_USERNAME=homestead
DB_PASSWORD=secret

This is my config/database.php file:

'mysql' => [
            'driver' => 'mysql',
            'host' => env('DB_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
            'port' => env('DB_PORT', '3306'),
            'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'forge'),
            'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'forge'),
            'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
            'unix_socket' => env('DB_SOCKET', ''),
            'charset' => 'utf8mb4',
            'collation' => 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci',
            'prefix' => '',
            'prefix_indexes' => true,
            'strict' => false,
            'engine' => null,
            'options' => extension_loaded('pdo_mysql') ? array_filter([
                PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_SSL_CA => env('MYSQL_ATTR_SSL_CA'),
            ]) : [],
        ],

and also created a Database in Xampp named homestead.

this error is showing: SQLSTATE[HY000] [1045] Access denied for user 'user'@'localhost' (using password: YES) (SQL: select * from userswhereemail = [email protected]

CodePudding user response：

you need to provide db_name, mysql user_name and password in your .env file. for xampp default username is 'root' and no password. so update your .env file

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=homestead
DB_USERNAME=matkagu_satta
DB_PASSWORD=
