Can't connect to MySQL server on '10.x.y.z' (13)


Oops, yeah, I've upgraded to php 5.6.6.

Thanks!

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I am moving an application to a different set of servers with an upgraded stack. &nbsp;I'm going from one Ubuntu server with standard MySql to a pair of CentOS servers. &nbsp;The DB server runs MariaDB.<br />
<br />
I can now make the remote connection using mysql -h 10.1.1.1 -u my_user -p my_database, indicating that the firewall is not the problem and neither are the permissions.<br />
<br />
However, mysql_connect fails. &nbsp;I've temporarily hard-coded the parameters so I'm sure I'm attempting the right connection.<br />
<br />
What other errors should I look for?<br />
<br />
Thanks!

PHP mysql_connect to remote server

MySQL is an open source, relational database management system that runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases. Acquired by Oracle in 2009, it is frequently used in combination with PHP installations, powering most of the WordPress installations.

MySQL Server

PHP is a widely-used server-side scripting language especially suited for web development, powering tens of millions of sites from Facebook to personal WordPress blogs. PHP is often paired with the MySQL relational database, but includes support for most other mainstream databases. By utilizing different Server APIs, PHP can work on many different web servers as a server-side scripting language.

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.
