We have an application running with CodeIgniter and MySQL in cestacerta.com.

Ther are two versions: One that is in production and it works perfectly, and one that is our Development version. This runs locally on my machine and the other developers.

The development version needs to remotely connect to the database, and it rather suddenly stopped working.

I've given permission to access any IP settings on the server. I can access the database through the MySQL Gui Tools. I have tested access to several different codes, including a newly downloaded version of CodeIgniter and always got the same error:

"A Database Error Occurred
Unable to connect to your database server using the provided settings.
Filename: C: \ xampp \ htdocs \ cestacerta \ system \ database \ DB_driver.php
Line Number: 119 "

What troubleshooting steps can I take determine if the error is on our workstations (which all have the same error) or on our server.
