MAMP 无法连接到本地主机上的 MySQL (10061) - 2017

Question

I'm trying to create a dynamic drop down list by requesting data from my database using MAMP.

One of the tutorials I have tried has been talked about already and my version of the code is the same. Dynamic dropdown list with PHP & MYSQL

Although I am under the impression MAMP has a SQL server, I thought the problem was because I didn't have MySQL installed on my computer so I downloaded it, to no avail.

I went into my Task Manager and tried looking for "MySQL service" although I couldn't find the exact tag I did see MySQL Writer is running, but the Browser and Agent INFLOW is not and refuse to start.

I went here into my computer ( c://windows/system32/drivers/etc.host ) and took off the #s that were before

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost 

making sure each remained on a separate line, I restarted my computer but I still can't seem to connect.

Any suggestions on how I may be able to fix this? I am extremely new to PHP and even newer to MySQL so, if possible, please try to keep any solutions simplified so I can follow along.

不确定问题究竟是什么，但我放弃了 MAMP 并安装了 XAMPP，现在一切似乎都在工作。
