There are no less than 1,000 threads on the interwebs about Laravel Sail and getting the "SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused" error. I have tried just about every relevant suggestion and after spending about 45 hours on this, cannot get ANYWHERE with Sail/Docker.

I installed Sail on a pre-existing project using:

php artisan sail:install
php artisan sail:publish

In Ubuntu (running Windows WSL2): I've tried:

sail build --no-cache
sail up -d

But alas, still:

SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused (SQL: select * from...

At one point, I was able to access the mysql cli and verify there was a database with the correct name, but the HTTP requests just weren't being accepted. However, after reinstalling sail a few times and changing environment variables, I can no longer do this either, as I get the mysql cli error:

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'

Here's my .env:

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=mysql
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=somedb
DB_USERNAME=someuser
DB_PASSWORD=somepass

Here's my docker-compose:

    Can you share all your env file? Forward ports etc. Also are you trying ti reach via docker or from your local machine? – gguney Mar 03 '22 at 04:50

    `APP_NAME="some app" APP_ENV=local APP_KEY=base64:NGKzLpnOkKdFJfdPj6aqCi9L6RYpWeA2lab/a4C3Rd4= APP_DEBUG=true APP_URL=http://app.devel LOG_CHANNEL=stack LOG_LEVEL=debug DB_CONNECTION=mysql DB_HOST=mysql DB_PORT=3306 DB_DATABASE=somedb DB_USERNAME=someuser DB_PASSWORD=somepass BROADCAST_DRIVER=log CACHE_DRIVER=file FILESYSTEM_DRIVER=local QUEUE_CONNECTION=sync SESSION_DRIVER=file SESSION_LIFETIME=120 MEMCACHED_HOST=memcached` I hit a character limit but nothing below this really matters. I was accessing "localhost" in browser when running docker. – WhiskeyMike Mar 03 '22 at 05:04
  • Is your forward db port 3306? – gguney Mar 03 '22 at 05:34

    FORWARD_DB_PORT is not assigned in .env, so it takes the default 3306 set in docker-compose. – WhiskeyMike Mar 03 '22 at 22:03

In file .env change DB_HOST=mysql to DB_HOST=host.docker.internal
