Unknown MySQL server host

Question

When trying to connect to my database server, i encounter the problem of unknown host:

Warning: mysqli::mysqli() [mysqli.mysqli]: (HY000/2005):          


        

Answer 1

If you use this code:

$Mysqli= new mysqli('mysql2.servidoreswindows.net:3306',
                    'usu', 'pass', 'dbname');

you can try to write host without port

That is:

$Mysqli= new mysqli('mysql2.servidoreswindows.net', 'usu', 'pass', 'dbname');
