Hi I work on a macbook and use Xampp and I have a problem on my laravel project 5.4. When I do composer update I had this error:
In Connection.php line 647: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused (SQL: select * from houses)
In Connector.php line 68: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused
Script php artisan optimize handling the post-update-cmd event returned with error code 1.
I don't know how to resolve that I check the user of my database it's root, I check my .env in my laravel project the name, user and password are ok, I can access to phpmyadmin, I imported the database file on phpmyadmin. And when I do php artisan serve
I have this error:
In Connection.php line 647: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused (SQL: select * from houses)
In Connector.php line 68: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused
But I think it's normal because the composer update didn't worked.
First clear cache if any changes was made in .env:
php artisan config:cache
