Changes to the PHP.INI file are dynamic and do not require any
shutdown/restart with Wildcat!. 

If you are using another web server then a restart maybe required.

Assuming you can connect successfully to MySQL using the CLI mysql command
tool or a GUI tool like SQLyog https://github.com/webyog/sqlyog-community
then you need to go through the PHP specific troubleshooting process.
