New Pleskian
Hi
I am running Plesk 12.5.30 on Windows Server 2012.
I have set up a user (say, site_conn) for access to the MySQL database. If I select the option Allow remote connections from on the Database > Database Users screen, I then get errors on our site saying that access is denied for user 'site_conn'@'localhost'.
According to the documentation, this option should allow local connections;
I have tried specifying localhost as one of the allowed hosts, but this is not retained. I also tried 127.0.01 and ::0 - but still get the error. I therefore have to switch back to the Allow remote connections from any host which is not ideal for security reasons.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

Allow remote connections from (the specified hosts). Select to allow access from the specified host names or IP addresses. Note that local connections will be allowed too.
