Laravel SQLstate[Hy000] [2002] Connection Refused

SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused within Laravel homestead

Problem

In Laravel you have config/database.php where all the setup for the connection is located. You also have a .env file in the root directory in your project (which everyone uses for timesaving). This contains variables that you can use for the entire project.

On a standard L5 project the MySql section of config/database.php looks like this:

    'mysql' => [
        'driver'    => 'mysql',
        'host'      => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),
        'database'  => env('DB_DATABASE', 'forge'),
        'username'  => env('DB_USERNAME', 'forge'),
        'password'  => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
        'charset'   => 'utf8',
        'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
        'prefix'    => '',
        'strict'    => false,
        'engine'    => null,
    ],

Notice there is no port set!

Although in my .env file I had set DB_PORT=33060. But that value (3306) was never read into the config/database.php.

So don't be a dumbass like myself and forget to check the database.php file.

FIX
Simply add 'port' => env('DB_PORT', 3306), to your config/database.php and set that value in .env like this DB_PORT=3306

Laravel 7 SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused

The default port for MySQL is 3306 not 3302 you must use like this unless you have changed the port in php.ini

DB_PORT = 3306

Run this command

php artisan config:clear

And instead of using

php artisan serve 

Use

 php -S 127.0.0.1:8000 -t public/

This might help because if you use artisan serve and make changes to env you must kill the serve and run again.
