remote database error in phpmyadmin

Question

I am getting error while i configure remote database in phpMyadmin. error is like as below

#2002 - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.

The server is not responding (or the local server's socket is not correctly configured).

Answer 1

Most likely your MySQL server does not accept connections from external hosts. Unless you are the administrator of the server, you most likely cannot change this.
