Laravel Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in laravel 4.2

My error was Laravel Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

and I only got this error at my host site.

In .env I changed:

DB_USERNAME=user
DB_PASSWORD=password

to:

DB_USERNAME='user'
DB_PASSWORD='password'

Worked for me!

Run php artisan serve after configure .env, not before.

DB_HOST=localhost worked for me on Laravel 5.7
