The problem is that the MySQL server doesn't allow access from all external sources (e.g. could be only a select few, or even no external sources at all).

If the MySQL server is the same as your webserver, try using 'localhost' to connect instead. Otherwise, if you don't host the website, contact your host to figure out how to connect to their SQL server.
