PHP Page with Database login wont open!

[BorisZ]

Hi,

 

Im using Uniformserver for long time and this is the first time Im facing with the problem. Yesterday I downloaded the latest version of Uniformserver and before that I think I was using 4.3 version. As I said before that I didnt had any kind of problems and all worked OK, but after I unpacked this latest version and added my files within "www" folder I started server and when I want to open any .php page which is connecting to database Im getting fallowing error:

 

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: [2002] A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not (trying to connect via tcp://localhost:3306) in D:\CouponsDepo.com\www\connections\coupons_database.php on line 9

 

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: 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. in D:\CouponsDepo.com\www\connections\coupons_database.php on line 9

 

Fatal error: 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. in D:\CouponsDepo.com\www\connections\coupons_database.php on line 9

 

now the file whihc is used to connect to database it as fallows:

 

<?php
# FileName="Connection_php_mysql.htm"
# Type="MYSQL"
# HTTP="true"
$hostname_coupons_database = "localhost";
$database_coupons_database = "rootdatabase";
$username_coupons_database = "root";
$password_coupons_database = "root";
$coupons_database = mysql_connect($hostname_coupons_database, $username_coupons_database, $password_coupons_database) or trigger_error(mysql_error(),E_USER_ERROR); 
?>

 

what is the problem, why with previous versions I didnt had any problem and with this new open I cant open any php file whos connecting to database. BTW clean .html pages are ok, and also .php pages which are not connecting to database login file so I guess that something is wrong in there.

 

Thanks for help. Best Regards

Instead of:

$hostname_coupons_database = "localhost"

Try:

$hostname_coupons_database = "127.0.0.1"

All the best
