my localhost mysql will not connect unless my laptop is connected to wireless network
hello ... I am not sure which forum is the right one for this question ...
I have WAMP on my winxp, for many years with no problems.
about 2 months ago I installed SiteKiosk on my laptop. Afterwards my HeidiSQL software quit working:
- "sql error (2003) in statement #0: can't connect to mysql server on '127.0.0.1' (10061)"
... .... ... (so I just used phpmyadmin for the last couple of months)
about 2 weeks ago I uninstalled siteKiosk, but heidiSQL still wouldn't work.
Today I went to client meeting, with my laptop, to show them a new webapp. I was not connected to their wireless network (I don't need to be, because the webapp runs on my localhost). And the webapp threw a an error (php):
- "Warning: mysqli::mysqli() [mysqli.mysqli]: [2002] No connection could be made because the target machine actively (trying to connect via tcp://localhost:3306) in C:\Server\htdocs\keleia.com\clients\client_prevent_deloza\project_uDesign\php\pkg_meekrodb.php on line 177"
line 177 is this:
$mysql = new mysqli($this->host, $this->user, $this->password, $this->dbName, $this->port);
When I came home, and my computer automagically connected to my home network, it worked fine. And so I intentionally disconnected from my network, and again the error.
- Any Thoughts about what is going on?
