This question has already been asked multiple times but none of the answers have helped me.
I am upgrading to Drupal 8 and to do so, I need to specify the login credentials for my Drupal 7 database.
SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
I can access the database perfectly fine to my SQL server is 100% running. I have checked the credentials inside settings.php and it says the following:
$databases = array (
'default' =>
array (
'default' =>
array (
'database' => 'karma-living.dev',
'username' => 'root',
'password' => '',
'host' => 'localhost',
'port' => '',
'driver' => 'mysql',
'prefix' => '',
),
),
);
So I copied above but I still get the error message above (yellow box).

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you in advance.
