database error?

Hello,

When I login in the site I get the below error

DataTables warning: table id=studentsVoc - An error occurred while connecting to the database 'learnChinese'. The error reported by the server was: SQLSTATE[08006] [7] FATAL: password authentication failed for user "yskapell"

Can be license issue or is something else?

    When I login in the site

    What site?

    The error suggests that the password that is being used by the server-side scripts you have, for the database, is incorrect. I would suggest checking that user name and password. If you are using the Editor libraries, that will be in the config.php file.

    It isn't a licensing issue, its a configuration issue.

    Hello Allan,

    Until 2 days ago it was working fine.

    Nothing changed as all the other SQL scripts work fine.

    where is the config.php file on the editor?

    I hate to say it, but something changed :). The error message is quite clear - it is a database credentials connection error.

    If you are using our Editor PHP libraries (I don't know if you are or not?), then look in the config.php file. See the documentation here.
