I have a website hosted by united domains. It was working fine with MySQLi but I changed it to PDO. Now I cannot get the database to work. I've tried changing $host to 127.0.0.1, and to localhost. If I use localhost, I get the error SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory.
If I use 127.0.0.1 I get SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused.
I have also tried by changing collation but it still doesn't work. It works perfectly fine on my other domain that is on Hostinger.
$host = "localhost"; // I have tried using both 127.0.0.1 and localhost here
$db = "db_name"; //db name goes here
$username = "username"; //username goes here
$password = "password"; //password goes
try {
//Creating a PDO instance
$conn = new PDO("mysql:host=$host;dbname=$db", $username, $password);
$conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
$conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES, false);
$conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_DEFAULT_FETCH_MODE, PDO::FETCH_OBJ);
}catch(\PDOException $e){
// if connection fails, show PDO error
echo "Connection Failed: ". $e->getMessage();
}

I added a database to my cPanel, but I cannot connect it.
try{
$db = new
PDO('mysql:host=markus.veridyen.com;dbname=sosyalki_pratiki1_ipss;charset=utf8','sosyalki','password');
}catch(PDOException $e){
echo 'Hata: '.$e->getMessage();
}
When I try to connect my database, it gives me this error message:
Hata: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] The connection could not be established because the target machine actively refused.
Notice: Undefined variable: db in C:\xampp\htdocs\ipss\survey.php on line 55
You still can use localhost as server name on a live server.
I'll assume you are using cpanel.
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username"; //your cpanel username
$password = "password"; //your cpanel password
try {
$conn = new PDO("mysql:host=$servername;dbname=DatabaseName", $username, $password);
// set the PDO error mode to exception
$conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
echo "Connected successfully";
} catch(PDOException $e) {
echo "Connection failed: " . $e->getMessage();
}
?>
I'm new to web development. I bought a server on DigitalOcean, created a droplet and installed LAMP. I have a simple PHP script to connect to MySQL. Here's my PHP script(conn.php)
<?php
$servername = "xxx.xx.xx.xxx";
$username = "root";
$password = "my_password";
try {
$conn = new PDO("mysql:host=$servername;dbname=mysql", $username, $password);
// set the PDO error mode to exception
$conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
echo "Connected successfully";
}catch(PDOException $e) {
echo "Connection failed: " . $e->getMessage();
}
?>
Now, when I try to run on my local "xxx.xx.xx.xxx/conn.php", it's printing
Connection failed: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused
I'm able to connect phymyadmin of remote pc, but when i try to connect to remote db, I'm getting connection refused error.
I have seen similar kind of question, but not yet answered also it is not active now.SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused with right port
<?php
$servername = "192.168.1.12";
$username = "root";
$password = "root";
try {
$conn = new \PDO("mysql:host=$servername;dbname=my_db", $username, $password);
// set the PDO error mode to exception
$conn->setAttribute(\PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, \PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
echo "Connected successfully";
}
catch(\PDOException $e)
{
echo "Connection failed: " . $e->getMessage();
}
?>
In remote pc, bind address in mysql configuration file was set to 127.0.0.1 instead of 192.168.1.12
I am trying to create a simple mailing list webpage. Using LAMP. Here is the code I have for connecting to my database:
<?php
function insert()
{
$servername = "127.0.0.1";
$username = "root";
$password = "(my password here)";
$dbname = "(my db name here)";
try
{
// preparing database handle $dbh
$dbh = new PDO("mysql:host=$servername;dbname=$dbname", $username, $password);
// set the PDO error mode to exception
$dbh->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
}
catch(PDOException $e)
{
echo ("Could not connect to server.\n");
echo ("getMessage(): " . $e->getMessage () . "\n");
}
}
?>
The function continues after that but this connection attempt gets cung up on the catch, and throws the "SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused" error. I have tried:
-Changing the $servername to localhost, but this gives me a different error: "SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory"
-trying to specify all different ports
-checked all my info, database name and password.
-I can log into phpmyadmin and see that my database is fine
-looked at all other questions on this topic, with no help found.
I am trying to connect to a mssql server on my mac through pdo_dblib. I have the freetds.conf updated to the host I want to connect. My phpinfo tells me that I have all the driver hooked up and good to go. Below is the code that I wrote to test if I can connect to the server.
<?php
$servername = "IP";
$port = "port";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$myDB = "database";
try {
$conn = new PDO("dblib:dbname=$myDB;host=$servername:$port", "$username", "$password");
// set the PDO error mode to exception
$conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
echo "Connected successfully";
}
catch(PDOException $e)
{
echo "Connection failed: " . $e->getMessage();
}
?>
However I get an error:
Connection failed: SQLSTATE[] (null) (severity 0)
I tried using SQL Developer to connect to the mssql server and it worked. I have been trying to solve this problem for a whole day. What might be the problem? Thanks!
Remove the quotes from the variables in the connection string -
$conn = new PDO("dblib:dbname=$myDB;host=$servername:$port", $username, $password);
I found out the answer!
You have to uncomment TDS version protocol in /usr/local/Cellar/freetds/0.91/etc/freetds.conf.
Found the solution in Why won't my server connect to a remote MSSQL server using PHP mssql_connect?
but why do I have to do this...no idea...wish some one could give some explanation.
