Connect to an online db in c++ - c++

Question

I created my database in phpMyAdmin from godaddy.com.
But i can't seem to find a way to connect to it.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
#include "cppconn/driver.h"
#include "cppconn/exception.h"
#include "cppconn/resultset.h"
#include "cppconn/statement.h"
#pragma comment(lib, "mysqlcppconn.lib")
const string server = "myWebsite";
const string username = "username";
const string password = "password";
int main()
{
sql::Driver *driver;
sql::Connection *dbConn;
sql::Statement *stmt;
sql::ResultSet *res;
try
{
driver = get_driver_instance();
}
catch (sql::SQLException e)
{
cout << "Could not get a database driver. Error message: " << e.what() << endl;
system("pause");
exit(1);
}
try
{
dbConn = driver->connect(server, username, password);
}
catch (sql::SQLException e)
{
cout << "Could not connect to database. Error message: " << e.what() << endl;
system("pause");
exit(1);
}
stmt = dbConn->createStatement();
try
{
stmt->execute("USE test");
res = stmt->executeQuery("SELECT * FROM users");
}
catch (sql::SQLException e)
{
cout << "SQL error. Error message: " << e.what() << endl;
system("pause");
exit(1);
}
sql::ResultSetMetaData *res_meta = res -> getMetaData();
int columns = res_meta -> getColumnCount();
while (res->next())
{
for (int i = 1; i <= columns; i++) {
cout << res->getString(i) << " | " ;
}
cout << endl;
}
delete res;
delete stmt;
delete dbConn;
return 0;
}
But i get this error:
Could not connect to database. Error message: Access denied for user 'username'#'IP' (using password: YES)
This code works fine with the local phpmyadmin databases.
So is there any different way to connect to databases that are hosted on a website?
