Error when importing csv file onto ftp server database

[taywanqi]

Hi all, i have a csv fiile that has to be imported to a ftp server database. The code works when i am trying out the application on localhost, and the data in the file is successfully uploaded and sent in the database. however, this becomes an issue on when my files are launched on the ftp server.

I get this following error:
SQL ERROR:Access denied for user 'istaff'@'%' (using password: YES)

does anyone know what this means?

I'm attaching my code here, perhaps it might help. Thanks!!

It means access denied...

Check this file, make sure you have the correct username and password
set for your database.

I;ve checked over and over again. I have another application which uploads an image into the database, and it works fine with the same connection file. Does this error have something to do with the chromd 777 permission on the FTP server? I tried changing the permission of the upload folder, but with little success
