MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 111
php, sql
Solution
fixed by updating to hostname in account manager specifically given by godaddy.com .. not just the domain name
Problem
I moved my site to godaddy server, but the SQL connection is not working even with adequate changes which was working perfectly fine before ``` <?php $link = mysql_connect('www.xxxxx.com', 'phpadminusername', 'phpadminpasswor'); if (!$link) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } /*echo 'Connected successfully';*/ echo "DB CONNECTION :<font color='green'>ACTIVE</font>"; ?> ``` It is showing an error Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 111 in /home/content/58/9508458/html/psychiatric/private.php on line 196 Could not connect: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 111
