Cannot connect to MySQL database

Post by cdr6545 » Mon 17 Nov 2014 14:22

For some reason, I cannot successfully connect to a MySQL database. I am using the exact same settings I use for another db program (Navicat) where I can successfully connect. With dbForge, I am getting this error message:

Can't connect to MYSQL server on 'localhost' (10061):
Can't establish HTTP connection.

Then when I remove HTTP tunneling to see if that is the problem, I get this error message:

Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061):
No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:3306.

Any ideas why it works with Navicat and not dbForge?

Thanks for any help.

Could you please provide us screenshots of all the tabs of the 'Database Connection Properties' dialog box that can be invoked as follows:

1. Select 'Database -> Connection Manager...' from the main menu. The 'Connection Manager' dialog box opens.
2. Select a connection and click the 'Edit' button.

Also, please let us know if you are using HTTP tunneling and, if so, please provide us the URL of the page with the tunnel.php file?

You can send a reply straight to our support system at supportATdevartDOTcom
