if (mysqli_connect_errno()) { echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error(); 
}

A frequent security setting used in SQL Server is to only allow local access.

If you can connect to a local database but another domain does not work I would think your access is blocked by the server.

  • MYSQL User accounts have 2 parts 1) the userid 2) the place(s) where they are allowed to connect FROM. If the account you are using does not allow REMOTE connection you cannot connect remotely – RiggsFolly Dec 08 '16 at 11:28
  • Try to connect to the database with a desktop app first, something like [HeidiSQL](http://www.heidisql.com/). Then you know if it generally works. – marv51 Dec 08 '16 at 11:30
