Quickbooks web connector error


I had a working setup of desktop QuickBooks and my website PHP application so far. Recently I decided to restore a backup of a different company file in my QuickBooks.

It restored successfully, but now when I try to add a new application in QuickBooks web connector using a new username and password (I've already changed the username/password in web_connector.php and cleared all database entries relevant to QuickBooks tables) and run "update" on this newly added application, I get the error

Invalid password for username: mudit

I've rechecked and readded the application several times and checked my web connector file as well. They all have the new username and password.

Please let me know what else to change or what I am doing wrong.


Solution

  • As the Web Connector says, you have an:

    Invalid password for username: mudit

    This:

    ... and cleared all database entries relevant to QuickBooks tables ...

    Is a major red flag, since the username/password are stored in the very QuickBooks tables that you have cleared.

    If you cleared those tables, then you probably cleared your username and password.

    Look in the quickbooks_user SQL table - is your username/password in there? If not, then you deleted your username/password, and you need to re-add them to that table.
