SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Establishing tcp connections on remote port 3306 has been disabled for security reasons

Question

I am using laravel 5 to implement api in subdomain for example: api.domain.com

I copied the laravel from local to sharing host. In public_html/api folder.

In local eveything works fine, but in server I got this error:

PDOException in Connector.php line 55: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Establishing tcp connections on remote port 3306 has been disabled for security reasons.

When I try to connect database by laravel 5.

What should I do?

Answer 1

Use localhost instead of 127.0.0.1 in your .env file for DB_HOST variable.
