how to connect to web host mysql db from localhost
I have a problem to connect to my webhost MYSQL from my localhost.
I have a host (www.printcity24.com) with mysql db and I use this code to connect to mysql db :
<?php
$db_path = mysqli_connect('printcity24.com', 'myuser', 'mypass', 'mydb', '3306');
if(!$db_path) {
echo mysqli_connect_error();
}else{
echo "Connected successfully";
}
?>
when i call this code from printcity24.com every thing is OK and connect to mysql db successfully.
but i created a localhost by xampp on my computer and when i call this code i got this error :
Warning: mysqli_connect(): MySQL server has gone away in C:Program
FilesXAMPPhtdocsindex.php on line 2
Warning: mysqli_connect(): (HY000/2006): MySQL server has gone away in
C:Program FilesXAMPPhtdocsindex.php on line 2 MySQL server
has gone away
I talk to my web host admin and opened 3306 port on my host and added % to Manage Access Hosts on CPanel > remote MYSQL
but i still have problem to connection.

It has nothing to do with xamp. It's a tool to manage your MySQL databases. You can use it to check if you can remotly connect to your db

To add to what Cid said, the purpose of doing so is to rule out the possibility of an issue in your PHP code, since Workbench is known to connect properly to Mysql.

Another thing to try is explicitly adding your (public) IP address to the allowed hosts lists, rather than just %.
