CMS Made Simple Forums

Interesting problem... I keep getting the following error when trying to use the MySql Dump module:

-- Connecting to internal-db.s71278.gridserver.com...
/usr/bin/mysqldump: Got error: 1045: Access denied for user 'db71278'@'70.32.68.17' (using password: NO) when trying to connect

What's strange is, this hasn't happened before on any of the CMS installations I've done. Also, same server (and presumably server settings) as all the others.

I'm using CMSMS v1.6.3 "Touho" and MySQL Dump 1.2.4 (the latest one)... it just seems like, one way or another, the password is not getting supplied so it can't authenticate to access to database. How do I force it to send the password?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I know this is a rather old post but I have had the same problem.

CMSMS 1.10.3 and mysqldump 1.2.4

I found that mysqldump module does not like having non-alphanumeric characters in the password such as £$*&.

Remove them and the module works fine.
