MySQL database connection

I am using wampserver to connect to a mysql database.
First I had to correct the portsettings, because W10 uses port 80 for http and so does localhost. But this was solved.
The second issue now is that connecting to the database gives a system error: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'waiting for initial communication packet', system error: 0
Does someone know how to handle this?

Thanks

I wish I could be more helpful but.....
The only thing I can think of would be either disabling the firewall or otherwise provide the application and the database proper access through it by configuring the ports and protocol through it, especially if you've adjusted port 80 for http, so it is no longer defaulted through the firewall.
