Django connection mysql error, showing the target computer actively refused

Question

Problem Description：

I am using django to connect to mysql. After clicking and executing, I am telling me that the error is that the target computer actively refuses. I would like to ask what caused this. I checked a lot of information. Basically, the service is not open, but My current mysql on my local computer is turned on.

Error message：

Unhandled exception in thread started by <function check_errors.<locals>.wrapper at 0x000001C834726840>

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I am not sure if it is related to the version of the module, but as long as I remove the code to add the linked database, this project will run normally.

    DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
        'NAME': 'test',
        'USER': 'root',
        'PASSWORD': '123456',
        'HOST': '127.0.0.1',
        'POST': '3307',
    },
}

Answer 1

The reason is: some ports of django are bound, or the port is changed. Try changing the port to 3306. When I changed the port in mysql to 3306, django was changed to the corresponding 3306, and I can connect.

Answer 2

In the config you wrote POST instead of PORT . That might be the issue.
