I use SQL server (not sure how similar this is to MySQL) and there were two options when setting it up either use windows authentication or combined windows and sql authentication.... I chose windows authentication which means I don't have to pass the username and password as windows does that. Maybe that is what is happening in your case? I just modify my application template (on my PC) to reflect no username and password (as on the hosted server they are required). <cfscript> request.login=""; request.password=""; </cfscript> Incidently I found the whole process of setting up SQL Server locally a total nightmare but eventually I figured it out!
