Guys, I’ve been trying to install WP on a sub-server and I keep getting this error:
Now installing WordPress version 5.8.1 ..
Database connection failed : mysql::execute_sql failed : DBI connect failed : Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
.. failed! See the error message above for the reason why.
I’ve checked the password for Mariadb and for the user and they match. I also ran the VM Wizard and set the name password but, nothing works. I haven’t been able to find a solution for this. Could anyone please point me in the right direction. Thanks in advsnce.

Thanks… But, this is one of them days where an alien is inside the system. I’ve been trying this for about 4 hours now, and I just tried it one last time and it installed… I think I’m going to have a beer now… TY
