Access denied for user 'username'@'localhost' even if I change user setting
<?php
$db = mysqli_connect('localhost','root','','firstdb')
or die('Error connecting to MySQL server.');
?>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<h1>PHP connect to MySQL</h1>
</body>
</html>
Although error says "Access denied for user 'username'@'localhost'", I can't seem to have access to my file because I get access denied for root user that doesn't have a password.
I also tried to make a user with username "username" but it doesn't work at all.

that;s very odd. We'd expect the error to be "Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'
, given the code shown in the question. Why would "root" be getting replaced with "username" ?

I tried adding a password, it still shows the same error saying "Access denied for user 'username'@'localhost' (using password: YES)"
