Your MySQL plugin is trying to access the DB as 'root', which you really should never ever do.

Make sure you are using the right password.
Are you trying to connect externally or is the MySQL server on the same machine?

Check again. It's clearly trying to log in with a password, be sure that the password
parameter is like this: "" and not like this: " ". Not sure if that matters, but it's clearly trying with a password.

Had the problem before. Make sure there aren't spaces in between ' pass: " " ' ( as stated above ), also make another user or try '127.0.0.1' as the user because root never works for me, Also if you are using MySQL externally don't use the 127 or root, Make a new user and give it privileges for the specific DB you a trying to connect to. Tell us how it went.
