Error: connection failed

Because I wanted to upload a rather big database I changed the max post limit and the max upload limit to 64M. But since I did that I have the 'Error: connection failed' error whenever I try to access phpmyadmin, or try to delete/add a database. Here's an example:

I have no clue what do to. Any suggestions?

I have similar problem. Not all my database are not working. I can't delete any of them from the Control Panel. And I can't do anything via the terminal.

And when I tried to access a site with database, I get the following error:

Error connecting to the database: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (111)

I'm totally stuck now. :(

Hello, I just did a new VestaCP Installation and I am having this same problem...

I can not create database. I am getting

Adding database → "Error: Connection failed"

Can someone help with this problem??

Tony, try to change mysql root password
and then add new password in Vesta config

Code: Select all

/usr/local/vesta/conf/mysql.conf

find it
PASSWORD='curent_passwd'

Code: Select all

PASSWORD='new_mysql_root_passwd'
