I'm trying to set up opencart for my website, but when I fill in everything for the MySQL database I get this error:
No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
I've tried putting it on localhost, I've tried on 127.0.0.1. when I try on 192.168.1.126 (the database server) it says it can't find the database
the server hosting the PHP site is on 192.168.1.125
I'm very new to SQL, I really don't understand it fully. I'm creating a new database in SQL workbench. and filling in the info I need. How to I fix this error?
My guess is that your DB user is only allowed to access the DB server from 127.0.0.1. You might want to grant additional privileges to it and in your SQL shell run something like
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* To 'your-db-user'@'192.168.1.125'
