I am trying to install drupal on remote mysql server. I have created the user in mysql and granted the the privileges.
I am able to connect through command line from my web server like this "mysql -u xxxx -h 10.xxx.yy.zz3 -p".
But when I tried to install drupal I get "SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'xxxx'@'localhost'". I have given the privileges for "xxxx"@"10.xxx.yy.zz3" but drupal appends localhost instead of IP to user name. I have changed settings.php to mysql server IP.
What am I missing?
