'wwwrun' and database access.

[unreal128]

I am trying to connect to a mySQL database but it is giving me...

error: 1045 - Access denied for user: 'wwwrun@localhost' (Using password: NO)

I run the connect function as mysql_connect($sqlhost,$sqluser,$sqlpw) and give it the correct user and password that has privleges. For some reason mySQL sees the requesting user as the Apache server (wwwrun) and not $sqluser. Any insight into why this is?

What's the code? (obviously don't include your real password!)

Here is the form data...

<form action="index.php" method="post">
    <input name="mode" type="hidden" value="buildTreeDir" />
    <input type="submit" value="Compile Filesystem List" />
</form>

...and here is the PHP code...

require("lib/db.inc.php");

...

function buildTreeDir() {
	if (!($connection = @ mysql_connect($sqlhost,$sqluser,$sqlpw)))	// initial database connect
		showerror();
	if (!mysql_select_db($sqldb,$connection))
		showerror();

$sqlquery = 'SELECT `cur_title` FROM `mw3_cur` WHERE `cur_title` LIKE \'%/usr/BOSS%\' ORDER BY `cur_title`';
if (!($sqlresult = @ mysql_query($sqlquery,$connection))) {
	showerror();
} else {
	$inc = 0;
	while ($row = @ mysql_fetch_array($sqlresult)) {
		$files[$inc] = $row['cur_title'];
		$inc++;
		logMsg($files[$inc]);
	}
}
}

I'm stumped on this - the only possiblity I can think of is an invalid username or password

I wonder. Is it an access denied for the Apache server trying to access mySQL and not necessarily an access denied for table priveleges?
