@Otomatic: Here are the answers to the questions in your link:
--- --- --- --- --- --- ---
NOTE: *Web servers and networking are my weakest areas as a seasoned web developer, so forgive me if I don't understand some concepts like netsh, sockets, ports, port forwarding, etc. right away.*
QUESTION: I can understand why questions 1-12 might help troubleshoot, but what do virtual hosts have to do with phpMyAdmin not connecting to MySQL? Aren't v-hosts basically just "aliases" (shortcuts)?
--- --- --- --- --- ---
** ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS **
When you ask a question, please ensure you start your question with the answers to **ALL these 13 questions**.
1 - Windows version used: **Windows Home 64-Bit (Build: 19042)**
2 - Version WampServer: **3.2.5 64-bit**
3 - Apache Version: **2.4.23**
4 - PHP Version: **7.0.10**
5 - MySQL Version: **5.7.14**
5a - MariaDB version if applicable: **N/A**
6 - What color is the WampServer icon: **GREEN**
7 - (If icon is NOT green): **N/A**
**If the WampServer icon is green:**
8 - Do you have access to localhost: **Yes**
8a - If so, is there an error message at the bottom of the page? **No, just a link to Wampserver Forums**
9 - Do you have access to phpMyAdmin? **No. The page comes up, but I get the two errors I mentioned already when I try to login** (standard user: root with NO PASSWORD)
- For good measure and completeness here are the error messages again:
--- --- ---
I can't login to PhpMyAdmin, but the error doesn't seem to be related to passwords or username credentials. At the top is this error
>#2002 - No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. — The server is not responding (or the local server's socket is not correctly configured).
At the bottom is this error:
>mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/2002): No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Again, it is **IMPORTANT** to note that this _only started about a month ago_. Before that everything worked fine.
--- --- ---
10 - If you refer to an error message, please include the EXACT wording of the error in your post: **Already provided.**
11 - If you use an Antivirus and / or Firewall: **Standard Windows Security included with Windows:**
- Domain network: Firewall On
- Private network (active): Firewall On
- Public network: Firewall On
- As far as I know, this is all default. I don't remember actively, manually changing any firewall settings.
12 - What is the full path to the installation of WampServer: **C:\wamp64\www**
13 - If you have one or more Virtual Hosts defined, please show their definition(s):
- *ServerName :* localhost - *Directory :* c:/wamp64/www
- *ServerName :* humescores.test - *Directory :* C:/wamp64/www/tuts/lyndalinkedin/wp
- *ServerName :* sealworks-20190328.ehw - *Directory :* c:/wamp64/www/in-progress/sealworks/20190328
- *ServerName :* nayarwp.local - *Directory :* c:/wamp64/www/tuts/nayyar-shaikh/1
