Operational error while trying to connect my MySQL database to pythonanywhere-CodePudding

I have finished my django project and I want to test it out on PythonAnywhere everything was fine until mysql database connection shows an error

I have paid subscription.

OperationalError at /home/ (1044, "Access denied for user 'almx98'@'%' to database 'almx98'")

I have a lot of records that I don't want to lose.

pythonanywhere venv settings.py:

DATABASES = {
'default': {
    'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
    'NAME': 'almx98',
    'HOST': 'almx98.mysql.pythonanywhere-services.com',
    'PORT': '3306',
    'USER': 'almx98',
    'PASSWORD': config('DB_PASSWORD'),
}

}

server connection settings:

CodePudding user response：

MySQL database names on PythonAnywhere have form: <username>$<something> Your default one would look like that: almx98$default but you might have created some other one that you want to use in your web app.
