Settings.php info not working

    Hello,

    I’ve copied all my info out of settings.php, but when I plug them into the Drupal database parameter fields, I’m running into the 2002 errors of “Connection refused”, “Connection timed out” and “No such file or directory”. I’m connecting to a remote Drupal instance that’s hosted, and I wonder if I need to format the host a bit. Here’s what I in settings.php for host, with the middle bit redacted, since it’s an indentifier:

    ‘host’ => ‘dbserver.dev.<what looks like a GUID>.drush.in’,

    Thanks for the help, and sorry if you’ve already answered something like this – I looked through the help topics but didn’t find anything.

    Scott D.

    If Drupal and WordPress are not installed on the same host, you can do this:

    • export the Drupal database to a SQL file (with phpMyAdmin for example)
    • import this SQL file on the same database as WordPress
    • run the migration by using WordPress database credentials (host, user, password, database) instead of the Drupal ones in the plugin settings. You can find the WordPress credentials in the wp-config.php file.
