I have the same problem. I am using the new panel. Please check my coding below. Is it correct?

<?php
    $dbhost = 'localhost';
    $dbuser = 'admin';
    $dbpass = 'abc123';
    $conn = mysqli_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die ('Database connection problem.');
?>

Thank you.

Hi Admin,
Seems like I can not able to get connected with database server.
I want to know server name (mysql).
I tried databases.000webhost.com but connection failed error.
