Setting up MYSQL, Apache2 and WordPress

MySQL/MariaDB

Remember to change bind-address to 0.0.0.0. By default it is set to 127.0.0.1 and then you can’t connect remotely!

Exactly which config file it is depends on MySQL vs MariaDB (/etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf), but it is easy to find under /etc

In Mysql 5.7, you should edit /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf
