I have already installed LAMP in my Ubuntu 18.10 server. I have also downloaded Drupal 7 files. But after I navigate to http://10.0.34.74/drupal-7.65/ in my browser. The error below occurs:

Error
The website encountered an unexpected error. Please try again later. 

PDOException: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused in lock_may_be_available() (line 167 of /var/www/html/drupal-7.65/includes/lock.inc).

Below are the configuration settings I edited in my settings.php file :

$databases = array (
             'default' => array (
                          'default' => array (
                                       'database' => 'pizzago',
                                       'username' => 'root',
                                       'password' => '1234',
                                       'host' => '10.0.34.74',
                                       'port' => '',
                                       'driver' => 'mysql',
                                       'prefix' => '',
                                       ),
                          ),
              );

Do I have to put something on the port? I have make sure that MySQL is running. Actually I have log in on it using:

 MySQL -u root -p

I have also created an empty database named pizzago. Where am I missing?

P.S:

The password above is not true.

UPDATE :

When I tried changing database host to localhost, since my database is just within the server. Another error occurs:

 PDOException: SQLSTATE[HY000] [1698] Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' in lock_may_be_available() (line 167 of /var/www/html/drupal-7.65/includes/lock.inc).

    In the $databases array try using localhost as a value for the 'host' instead of the IP.

    Just ensure "pizzago" database is already created in your local mysql server. And then try giving mysql port '3306' and host is 'localhost'.
