php artisan migrate --seed (SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused) about laravue HOT 3 CLOSED

Seems you have problem with MySQL connection. Have you tried to test connecting MySQL with pure PHP/mysql client/mysql command?

from laravue.

The problem was that I was using the presets in .env and didn't read the comment properly
# Migration and DB seeder (after changing your DB settings in .env)
Which lead me to assuming that the default settings should work.

I needed to change the line
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1 to DB_HOST=localhost, plus the following lines
DB_DATABASE=whatever db I want
DB_USERNAME=whatever username is set
DB_PASSWORD=password for db

This issue can be closed :)
