That error means that you have an invalid password or user name in the config files for your MySQL.
If it is ArcEmu that you are trying to use then the config files you need to change would be:
arcemu-logonserver.conf
Code:
<LogonDatabase Hostname = "host" <--- MySQL hostname like localhost
Username = "user" <--- MySQL username - default is root
Password = "pass" <--- MySQL password - your MySQL password goes here
Name = "dbname" <-- MySQL database name - probably logon
Port = "3306"
Type = "1">
arcemu-world.conf
Code:
<WorldDatabase Hostname = "host" Username = "username" Password = "passwd" Name = "database" Port = "3306" Type = "1">
<CharacterDatabase Hostname = "host" Username = "username" Password = "passwd" Name = "database" Port = "3306" Type = "1">
The areas in red above need to be set, Hostname is most likely localhost, Username default is root, Password should be your MySQL password (I think it defaults to root also if not changed on install.)
On the WorldDatabase (first) line, the Name = is probably world, and on the CharacterDatabase (second) line, the Name = is probably logon, unless you placed your character tables in a seperate database.
I hope this helps.
