What Is the ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED Error?<\/h2>\n

The ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED error message appears on Google Chrome when the browser’s attempt to connect to a web page is refused.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/p>

On Mozilla Firefox, this error produces the “Unable to connect” message. Meanwhile, Microsoft Edge displays “Hmmm…can’t reach this page” when the issue occurs.<\/p>

In most cases, ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED is a client-side error, which means that an issue on your machine has caused it. However, in rare cases, this can be caused by the target web server<\/a>.<\/p>

If you see ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED on localhost<\/a>, though, the solution to your problem will be related to localhost as well.<\/p>
