I am having the following problem since from a winform application I am trying to connect to my DATABASE and it gives me the following error
---------------- ErrorMysql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlException host: my ip is blocked because of many connection error; unblock whith 'mysqladmin flus-hosts'--------
Please try the following steps:-
Verify the connection. Check the network connection to make sure that there’s no TCP/IP connectivity issue from your host
Increase the value of max_connect_errors. You should find the setting in the MySQL configuration file under the [mysqld] tag (my.ini on Windows, my.cnf on Unix/Linux) and edit the value of max_connect_errors.
For example:
[mysqld]
max_connect_errors=10000;
Or run this query:
SET GLOBAL max_connect_errors=10000;
Flush host cache. If you have shell access to the server, login and execute this command:
mysql -u root -p -e 'flush hosts'
From the SQL console, run this statement:
FLUSH HOSTS;
If all those methods didn’t work, try restarting the server. It should clear the host cache too.

I'm facing some issue when installation in MySQL-Server. I tried to change the root password several times but it does not work as I expected. Finally when I'm going to change the password It's shows like this kind of output. How can I resolve this problem. When I going to connect to the sql database using netbeans it's output shows this error.
Cannot establish a connection to jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mysql?zeroDateTimeBehavior=CONVERT_TO_NULL using com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver (Access denied for user 'root'#'localhost')
mysql > select user, authentication_string plugin from mysql.user;
I think that you have correct password, but NetBeans cannot connect to TCP port 3306 at all. As soon as JDBC driver cannot connect to unix socket, please try to bind MySQL Server to tcp port 3306.
I think that it will be enough to check your MySQL configuration and find "skip-networking" option and remove it.
Please check /etc/my.cnf.d directory and /etc/my.cnf file for this line, delete it and restart MySQL server.
If you need to change the root password, the easiest way is to run mysql_secure_installation script from root user.
I recently had an issue with my production systems in which a MySQL server was blocking the application server, due to connection errors, and gave the following error:
Host 'xx.xx.xx.xx' is blocked because of many connection errors; unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts'
I'd like to find a way to simulate this condition (or even trigger the actual condition on a non-production server), so I can respond to it properly. It's a pretty rare problem for my systems, but I'd still like to find a good way to respond to it.
You can avoid this problem by increase peer connections in mysql configurations
Logging to console/terminal with admin privileges
Flush all hosts using mysqladmin:
mysqladmin flush-hosts -u root -p
Open my.cnf (Linux) or my.ini (Windows) and change max_connect_error variable
max_connect_errors= 250000
Restart server with changes
To simulate error connection you can connect to MySQL server and then end connection before succesfull authentication. For example by netcat:
nc -i0.1 <hostname> 3306
I have a strange issue on a web server (Windows Server 2012) with MySQL 5.7.16.
I can't connect anymore to mysql server, I don't know why.
If I type mysql -uroot -ppassword appear an error
ERROR 1130 <HY000>: Host '::1' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server or
ERROR 1130 <HY000>: Host '127.0.0.1' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server
I tried to use another user with all privileges and I've seen that in host there is only localhost (not 127.0.0.1 or ::1)
How can I login with root#localhost and not with root#127.0.0.1?
It's very frustrating...
Every account trying to use #127.0.0.1 or #::1 but there exist only localhost in host and I can't change it.
If I type mysql -uroot -ppassword I see
ERROR 1130 <HY000>: Host '127.0.0.1' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server
Same if I type mysql -uroot -ppassword -h localhost or anything else
Ok i Fixed...
I've comment "skip_name_resolve" in my.ini and everything is back to work.. i really don't know why because this record was in my.ini also yesterday..last week.. last month..
The variable skip_name_resolve gives better performance because the server does not try to resolve the names of the connecting clients or look for them every time in the host name cache (even localhost is resolved/searched), but the manual states that config also limits the #localhost connections. The solution is to copy the #localhost users with #127.0.0.1, like this:
CREATE USER 'root'#'127.0.0.1' IDENTIFIED BY 'root-password';
CREATE USER 'root'#'::1' IDENTIFIED BY 'root-password';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
where ::1 is localhost for IPv6 addressing. This way we keep the root and local accounts limited to the local server. Using '%' open the potential clients to the world, and we don't want that. Disabling skip_name_resolve also requires the server having an accesible and fast DNS resolver to minimize latency.
I noted that I can connect with a local phpmyadmin even if the user has #localhost; this is because phpmyadmin connects thru a local unix socket, a special type of file used to communicate between processes, and does not need networking.
EDIT: As #Francisco R noted, the new root users also should have full access to all databases by issuing the following commands:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'#'127.0.0.1'
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'#'::1'
FLUSH PRIVILEGES
I had the same message after a fresh installation with the no-install zip and solved it as follows. Perhaps this could have been a solution for your problem too:
Stop the MySQL server or service.
Open a Command Prompt window with administrative rights and go to the bin folder in the MySQL install directory.
Start MySQL with skip-grants-table and don't forget your config file:
mysqld --defaults-file=[filename] --skip-grant-tables
Open another Command Prompt window and go to the bin folder again.
Now you can login:
mysql -u root -p
Show the users with:
SELECT user, host FROM mysql.user;
Verify there is one 'root' with host 'localhost'.
Change the host:
UPDATE mysql.user SET host='%' WHERE user='root';
Exit the mysql program and close the Command Prompt window.
Type Ctrl-C in the other Command Prompt window to stop the server, then close the Command Prompt Window.
Start MySQL as you normally would and verify that you can login.
Make sure that when you created the user you have specified % as the hostname, otherwise the user will only be able to connect from the localhost.
I came here looking for a solution using Local by flywheel for wordpress development to the same problem, BUT, in a linux machine.
Just if someone faces the same problem, the solution listed here works.
Just comment skip_name_resolve in the file conf/mysql/my.cnf.hbs under the file tree created by Local
Thanks!
Looks that you need to modify your hosts file. C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts
just add the line and save it, (to be able to edit and save you may need to open it as administrator)
127.0.0.1 localhost
I don't know if this is a user error on my end, or if the remote server is configured incorrectly.
I was given some connection info for a server as follows:
Server IP
server username
keyfile
mysql user
mysql password
and I can shell in and run the "mysql" command with the mysql user and password I was given, but I can't setup a connection in either MySQL Workbench or in HeidiSQL.
In MySQL Workbench, the 'Standard TCP/IP over SSH' seemed to best fit the info I was given, but when I try to connect I get "Authentication error. Please check that your username and password are correct and try again." or "Authentication error opening SSH tunnel: Authentication error. Please check that your username and password are correct and try again." in the logfile.
In HeidiSQL the "MySQL (SSH tunnel)" seemed to best fit the info I was given, but when I try to connect there, I get "Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error:0"
I looked up both these errors and couldn't find anything for the first one, and the second one seemed to be more about server configuration. I'm not too savvy with server config, so I'm a bit stuck evaluating whether or not I'm doing something wrong on my end, or if something needs to be changed on the server. I'd appreciate some advice. Thanks!
You must be more specific about the credentials you got. Is "server IP" the IP address of the MySQL server or an SSH server? Is the "server username" the SSH user or something else (e.g. a regular user of the target machine)? In my tutorial video on Youtube I explained what you have to use where to create a connection, including SSH connections: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCgRF4KOYIY
You have to check a couple configuration steps before you can perform a remote mysql connection:
First of all you must check that mysql default port(3306) is listening on the correct interface.
You can check this out using netstat command in the remote server:
# netstat -tulnp
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1111/mysqld
http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/how-do-i-enable-remote-access-to-mysql-database-server.html
Then you must check that the remote host is allowed to perform querys into mysql engine (you must check user and host permissions over your database).
Connect into terminal and run the following command in mysql prompt:
mysql> select user,host from mysql.user;
Check the following link to deep insight mysql user and hosts system:
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/adding-users.html
Check user,host permissions over your database:
mysql> show grants for root#localhost;
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/grant.html
You must check that remote host (client) exist for example: user#192.168.1.2
Finally if you are using putty to encrypt over ssh you connection please check that you rsa key fingerprint is added you can perform this just logging ssh using you putty client.
This seems like a duplicate post, but I have checked all the solutions posted in relevant posts and none of them worked for me. So allow me to state the problem more accurately.
I have a server, where MySQL is installed. I have a user X with password P.
If I connect to the server (ssh or something) and try to run MySQL locally (mysql --user=X --password==P) it logs in perfectly, and I have access to everything:
mysql> show grants;
...
+------------------------------------------------------+
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'X'#'%' IDENTIFIED BY |
|PASSWORD 'somehash' WITH GRANT OPTION |
+------------------------------------------------------+
Now if I go to the config file: (sudo vim /etc/mysql/my.cnf) I see the following:
bind-address = 0.0.0.0
port = 3306
Then I go to hosts allow file (sudo vim /etc/hosts.allow) I see:
mysqld: ALL
Then I go to hosts allow file (sudo vim /etc/hosts.deny): the file is empty (except for some comments).
Still, when I try to connect with MySQL workbench I have the problem.
Here is how I do it. I go to add a new connection, I add the URL, username, pass, and port, and I click test connection and I get the message that is the title of this question. I tried with a random (non-existent) user pass combination and still I get the same response.
I tried commenting out bind-address too BTW. Also the server is generally accessible for other services like PostgreSQL and such.
not a solution to your server firewall issue but a workaround, as you are able to ssh into your database server:
You can try ssh remote port forwarding from your mysql server to your local machine, and then connect the mysql client to the local port. I use this method whenever I'm behind a firewall. As a bonus, data transmitted over this connection is also very secure.
For example, if you ssh'ed into the remote machine using
ssh hal#remote.machine.com -i ~/.ssh/hal.key
Then you could set up the port forwarding like this:
ssh -L 54321:127.0.0.1:3306 hal#remote.machine.com -i ~/.ssh/hal.key -f -N -M -S ~/.ssh/tunnel_54321_remote_machine_mysql
Then you can connect to the database as if you were connecting to the database locally (using the commanline mysql client as example):
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 54321 -u my_user -p my_database
This should then prompt for your password.
To close the tunnel:
ssh -S ~/.ssh/tunnel_54321_remote_machine_mysql hal#remote.machine.com -i ~/.ssh/hal.key
I first learned about this method from the postgres docs.
This is more than likely a firewall issue.
Easiest way to debug that at first, is to try telnet to the server on port 3306 both locally, and from remote. MySQL will send the version string in plaintext that you can see inside telnet if you are being correctly connected.
If you do not get that string, then something such as a firewall is likely blocking the connection.
