如何使用Laravel Framework 5.1在端口3308上连接MySQL数据库？

Question

I am trying to use laravel for the first time. I opned the database.php file located in the config directory and then update the mysql config.

but every time I try to do this command php artisan migrate:install

I get this [PDOException] SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No connection could be made because the target machi ne actively refused it.

I have to let laravel to connect to a different port somehow.

I have tried the following and none worked.

    'mysql' => [
        'driver'    => 'mysql',
        'host'      => env('DB_HOST', '10.15.1.5'),
        'port'      => '3308',
        'database'  => env('DB_DATABASE', 'mydb_dev'),
        'username'  => env('DB_USERNAME', 'user'),
        'password'  => env('DB_PASSWORD', 'pass'),
        'charset'   => 'utf8',
        'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
        'prefix'    => '',
        'strict'    => false,
    ],

and this

    'mysql' => [
        'driver'    => 'mysql',
        'host'      => env('DB_HOST', '10.15.1.5:3308'),
        'database'  => env('DB_DATABASE', 'mydb_dev'),
        'username'  => env('DB_USERNAME', 'user'),
        'password'  => env('DB_PASSWORD', 'pass'),
        'charset'   => 'utf8',
        'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
        'prefix'    => '',
        'strict'    => false,
    ],

and this

    'mysql' => [
        'driver'    => 'mysql',
        'host'      => env('DB_HOST', '10.15.1.5'),
        'port'      => env('DB_PORT', '3308'),
        'database'  => env('DB_DATABASE', 'mydb_dev'),
        'username'  => env('DB_USERNAME', 'user'),
        'password'  => env('DB_PASSWORD', 'pass'),
        'charset'   => 'utf8',
        'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
        'prefix'    => '',
        'strict'    => false,
    ],

finally, I tried this

    'mysql' => [
        'driver'    => 'mysql',
        'host'      => '10.15.1.5:3308',
        'database'  => env('DB_DATABASE', 'mydb_dev'),
        'username'  => env('DB_USERNAME', 'user'),
        'password'  => env('DB_PASSWORD', 'pass'),
        'charset'   => 'utf8',
        'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
        'prefix'    => '',
        'strict'    => false,
    ],

this gives me a different error

Access denied for user 'homestead'@'10.xxxxxx' (using password: YES)

I am not sure where is the user homestead is coming from.

How can I tell laravel to connect to mysql on port 3308?

Answer 1

I figured out the issue. the file .env needs to be updated with the correct information

Answer 2

I know you figured it out, but of all the attempts you provided, the answer you gave wasn't clear. For those looking in the future, here is what you need:

(This is assuming Laravel 5.1 using a Postgres DB, but should work with alternate versions of Laravel, and different DBs... also, don't mind the alternate/different config settings that my database.php has as opposed to yours, these were for advanced configurations.)

Add a 'port' section to your config/database.php , that looks like follows:

        'pgsql' => [
        'read' => [
            'host' => env('DB_READ', 'localhost')
        ],
        'write' => [
            'host' => env('DB_WRITE', 'localhost')
        ],
        'port'      => env('DB_PORT', '5432'),
        'driver'   => 'pgsql',
        'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'forge'),
        'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'forge'),
        'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
        'charset'  => 'utf8',
        'prefix'   => '',
        'schema'   => env('DB_SCHEMA', 'public'),
        'options'  => array(
            PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => env('DB_PERSISTENT', false),
        ),
    ],

Then in your .env you can override the port setting as follows:

DB_PORT=32769
