How to resolve ovh phpmyadmin access denied for user?

Typically, error looks as shown below:

#1044 – Access denied for user to database
 
This error message means that the database you are trying to import contains elements that are not authorised on the OVHcloud shared infrastructure.
 
First make sure that your database is empty from the 
Databases
 tab of the relevant service. Click on the 
...
 button next to the database concerned, then select 
Recalculate the quota
.
 
You can also tick the 
Empty the current database
 box just before launching the import
 
 
You cannot have a “trigger” in your database’s import script on OVHcloud shared hosting servers.
 
The following query is also not allowed:
 
CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `Database-Name` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET latin1 COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci; 
 
Use this this line instead:
 
USE `Database-Name`;
 
Replace 
Database-Name
 with the name of the database as displayed in your OVHcloud Control Panel.
 
Unable to access phpMyAdmin
 
“Access denied for user”
 
“mysqli::real_connect(): (HY000/1045): Access denied for user”
 
This error message may appear when connecting to your database by phpMyAdmin. It indicates that the credentials entered are incorrect.
 
 
In this situation, check the credentials entered and change your database password if necessary.
 
“Too many connections”
 
“mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/1040): Too many connections”
 
The maximum number of active connections for databases delivered with a shared hosting (Start SQL) is 30.
 
A “Too many connections” error when connecting to phpMyAdmin appears, if this maximum number of connections is exceeded.
 
In this situation, you will need to optimise your databases in order to reduce the number of active connections.
 
“Name or service not known”
 
“mysqli::real_connect(): (HY000/2002): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known”
 
This error message appears when connecting to phpMyAdmin if the server name entered is incorrect.
 
 
Check the server name for the relevant database service in your OVHcloud Control Panel.
 
If the database you would like to connect to appears in the 
Databases
 tab of the 
Hosting plans
 section of your OVHcloud Control Panel, the name to enter is in the 
Server address
 column.
