When I deploying my Laravel project on free host called 000webhostapp.com,
I got this error:

SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused (SQL: select * from posts
order by created_at desc limit 10)

I tried by creating a database there and also I connected with phpmyadmin.

My config/database.php file is :

    <?php

return [

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Default Database Connection Name
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | Here you may specify which of the database connections below you wish
    | to use as your default connection for all database work. Of course
    | you may use many connections at once using the Database library.
    |
    */

    'default' => env('DB_CONNECTION', 'mysql'),

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Database Connections
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | Here are each of the database connections setup for your application.
    | Of course, examples of configuring each database platform that is
    | supported by Laravel is shown below to make development simple.
    |
    |
    | All database work in Laravel is done through the PHP PDO facilities
    | so make sure you have the driver for your particular database of
    | choice installed on your machine before you begin development.

  2. config/database.php

        'mysql' => [
           'driver' => 'mysql',
           'host' => env('DB_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
           'port' => env('DB_PORT', '3306'),
           'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', ''),
           'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', ''),
           'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
           'unix_socket' => env('DB_SOCKET', ''),
           'charset' => 'utf8mb4',
           'collation' => 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci',
           'prefix' => '',
           'strict' => true,
           'engine' => null,
           'options'=> [PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES => true,]
                ],
    

    and in env file

    DB_CONNECTION=mysql
    DB_HOST=localhost
    DB_PORT=3306
    DB_DATABASE=id5155399_laravel
    DB_USERNAME=id5155399_victorhugo
    DB_PASSWORD=ay942006
    

    Just copy paste from here and let me know if it works!

    And in your PagesController.php you can change

    $posts = Post::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->limit(10)->get();
    

    to

    $posts = Post::latest()->limit(10)->get();
