I'm trying to connect to a remote database from my local machine, and php is throwing a nice vague error, so I was hoping someone with a bit more experience in this area could point me in the right direction. The error I'm getting:
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Connection refused in /my/obfuscated/directory/config.php on line 10
Could not connect: Connection refused
Your error is "Connection refused". So, remote sever refuse your request.
Try to configure remote server to allow your connection

I have installed XAMPP on windows 10 but cannot open phpMyAdmin. I had to change Apache port 443 to 4433 because of conflicts and now both apache and mysql are running. When I click on phpMyAdmin on my server it gives me the following message in a pink box:
MySQL said: Documentation
Cannot connect: invalid settings.
mysqli::real_connect(): (HY000/2002): No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed.
mysqli::real_connect(): (HY000/2002): No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.
I've read the questions on similar problems but they mostly happened when someone changed the password, but for my case, the user is set to root and the password is empty both in MySQL server connection and in the config.inc.php file. I have no clue where to look for the problem.
What version is your XAMPP? Try going to task manager, locate mysqlI and end task. Now close the XAMPP window and open it again. Go to Mysql and try test the connection by connecting to the database on port 3306. If it gives en error check the error log in the XAMPP.
I am trying to connect to a remote mysql server, but I get the
Warning: mysqli_connect(): (HY000/2002): A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
This connection worked until a few days back, but I suspect an antivirus update changed the permissions for the port. I am unable to figure it out and it's already frustrating.
I am using XAMPP, which I already reinstalled. I have also tried in WAMP, so it is not local webserver related.
Telnet fails when opening connection to host, my IP is allowed on the remote server.
I have also disabled the antivirus and firewall temporarily, but still fail to connect. What else should I try?
First check no other application is using the port. Because of the problem MySQL can't start at the port . check it and is not work means reinstall the xampp with another place like D: , E: , something else.
how to access cpanel database access in godady server using mysql php connectivity
i have tried a lot but last long it gives me
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Lost connection to
MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error:
111 in /home/content/q/u/i/quickandkosh/html/searchdata.php on line 6
Could not connect: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial
communication packet', system error: 111
I'm not sure about go daddy but I know some web hosts need a specific path to mysql server. Most us localhost but others, such as ipage use a full path through the virtual server. Go into your cpanel at godaddy and then "mysql databases" and it should have a "server" title with address below it somewhere in the page.
Just to note, you should also be using mysqli_connect.
I think your host could be wrong, wrong port, a firewall blocked the connection. So I would double check your connection settings.
So, we are coding a web chat client for our current IM, and i have one issue, socket_connect will NOT connect, and throws the "error Warning: socket_connect(): unable to connect [111]: Connection refused in /home/shadowri/public_html/zapf/personal.php on line 29" how would i get it to connect exactly, as it has to connect to the socket and send a handshake after that, then how would i get it to read every time they receive an message? i know its listening on that tcp socket, as our pc client uses it and simply connects directly then sends the handshake? am i missing something"
Either there is a firewall in the way or there is nothing listening at the IP:port you tried to connect to.
I'm trying to connect to an external Sql Server through PHP 5.2.
Using this line:
$con = mssql_connect('123.123.123.123','Username','Password') or die('Could not connect to the server!');
I'm receiving this error:
Warning: mssql_connect() [function.mssql-connect]: Unable to connect
to server: 123.123.123.123 in
/home/file/public_html/structure/index.php on line 4 Could not connect
to the server!
My hosting provider assures me that ports are open for my server to connect to the DB. Looking at my php info, MSSQL Support is enabled, using FreeTDS.
Any ideas why this would be failing, or how I can begin trouble shooting the problem?
i know that there is some security for remote connection to MSSQL.
i had a same issue.
you need to give connection permition for requested ip.
did you try to connect with your personal compter with a MS SQL program.
if you can so you have problem with your cilent (php host)
if you can not so you have problem with mssql server
