Find the database host name in plesk panel - plesk-onyx

I've created a database and database user in Plesk panel. I want to use the new database in another server, for this I need database host. Help me to find the database host in Plesk panel. (Note: it is an amazon server. I created a new instance and installed the Plesk panel for managing site files and databases)
I tried to find the database host by checking the database servers list ('Tools && settings' -> 'database servers'), but here host name is mentioned as localhost.

If your database server is marked as 'localhost' that means that you have to use your Plesk server hostname as database hostname. You can find it in Tools&Settings > Server Settings > Full hostname

How to Connect to a Database with MySQL Workbench
One tool you can use to connect to remotely connect to databases on your shared, VPS, or Dedicated hosting account is MySQL Workbench. MySQL Workbench is a free tool you can use to connect to your server databases from your personal computer. MySQL Workbench can be Downloaded for free at the following link:
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/
You will want to use the Windows (x86, 32-bit), MSI Installer if you are on Windows. The file we are installing in this tutorial is the mysql-workbench-gpl-5.2.47-win32.msi file.
Once you have downloaded MySQL Workbench, you can install it onto your computer. After you have the program installed, follow the steps below to set up a remote connection.
Add IP to your Remote MySQL
In order for you to be able to connect to your databases remotely you will need to add your local computer IP address to the Remote MySQL in cPanel.
Steps to connect to your database remotely
Open MySQL Workbench.
Click New Connection towards the bottom left of MySQL Workbench.
In the "Set up a New Connection Dialogue" box, Type your Database
connection credentials.
The credentials will be like the following:
Connection Name: You can name this whatever you like.
Connection Method: Standard (TCP/IP).
Hostname: You can use your domain our your cPanel IP address.
Port: 3306
Username: Your cPanel username or the user you created for the
database.
Password: cPanel password or the password for the database user that
was created.
Default Schema: This can be left blank.
Click Test Connection.
Type your password and click the "Save Password in Vault" check box.
Click Ok.
MySQL Workbench should say "Connection parameters are correct". Click Ok.
Click Ok again to accept the connection settings.
Now under the SQL Development section you will see your connection listed in the Open Connection to Start Querying box. Click your newly created account.
Now you will see the databases list in the area on the left.

cannot connect remotely with online database on localhost phpmyadmin

i have configured the phpmyadmin's config.inc.php file and a drop down menu has appeared accordingly in localhost/phpmyadmin to select the server. But when i try to connect to the server it says:
phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.
i have added my ip address to the online host server in the cpanel and have access to the remote sql connection.
please help.
Most hosts block incoming connections to the MySQL server as a security measure. You'll have to ask your host about unblocking port 3306 and how to access your MySQL directly -- or run an API on your web host, which would have access to the MySQL server due to being on the same network, and access the database through that. For phpMyAdmin specifically, just install it on your web host instead of your local machine, then access it through the internet rather than localhost.

How to connect to otrs MySQL database using mysqlworkbench

We have a Linux Vm which is running our OTRS. I have found the kernel file which has the database configuration details. In there the host name is listed as local host.
I tried using the server IP address along with the database username that is there; however I cannot seem to connect.
I also cannot find the port that is utilized. How do I connect to the database on mysqlworkbench,
Maybe server doesn't allow remote connections to the DB or user used by OTRS is only a local user?
If this is true you've got two options:
Create user that is allowed to login remotelyCreate user that is allowed to login remotely
Create user that is allowed to login remotely
Use Standart (TCP/IP) over SSH as connection method in MySQL workbench. This option allows to first connect over SSH to the server and than connect to the DB as local user

host xxxx is not allowed to connect to this mysql server vb godaddy

I'm having a trouble accessing the database in my godaddy account. I already created a database in phpmyadmin and a user in mysql database
I need to access the database in my godaddy account using my localhost.
But when i run my code, i'm getting a host xxxx is not allowed to connect to this mysql server
below is what i used in config
Public consqlonline As String = "server=Website_ipAddress;user=uname;password=pass;database=syncing;Connect Timeout=2000"
you need to give a privilege to connect the specific database that the application need to connect, via PHPmyadmin >> choose database >> use privileges tab.
by the way i had this problem also and my server was running on Linux, by default the configuration of the server permit connection only from localhost, so to fix that ive edited /etc/mysql/ my.cnf file: changed the bind-address from 127.0.0.1 to 0.0.0.0 (if the version is kind of old you have to comment the "skip-networking" command

How to access MySQL remotely through workbench

Hi I'm trying to create a new Connection to an MySQL database installed on a remote Windows server. However, due to server authentication problem, I cannot get the local mysql workbench connected to the remote database. And I could not find a place in workbench where I can provide my server authentication, i.e. username and password to access server. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!
in the Home window of mysql workbench, near Mysql Connections there is a + button, click on it to Open the setup new Connection wizard, then you get to enter the server's parameters.
Hostname : your Windows Server's host name.
Port : Port on which the remote mysql server communicate.
Username : your Mysql server's Username.
Password : your Mysql server's Password.
Default Shcema : the database you want to connect to.
Hope this helps
