For some reason, I'm unable to access the MySQL from a PHP script I just get the remote host actively refused the connection yet I'm able to connect via MySQL workbench.

Things iv done so far.

Opened all ports for MySQL

Checked event viewer for logs nothing seems to show any problems.

Restarted MySQL server

Any ideas?

Even though this has nothing to do with SolidCP, you need to enable php_mysql.dll & php_mysqli.dll extensions in php.ini

Either manually or within PHP Manager for IIS.

Hello,

Have you checked your my.cnf is not set to bind to a different address?

Thanks,

Trevor
