is there any way to connect to a remote database by using SQLyog? I have the ip address, user name and password of the database. However, I have 'Error 2003 - Can't connect to MySQL server on '[myIpAddress]' (10035) whenever I test connection in SQLyog.
Need to use both ssh connection and mysql server connection for establishment of successful connection.
You need to add % wild card in your cpanel to enable mysql remote connection, if you cannot do this, you can use SSH tunnel to connect to database, Please check the following screenshot

Our company has a database server on AWS which other the employees can connect to it with MySQL, but when I tried, I got this error message, how can I solve it?
I tried to reconfigure MySQL server but it didn't work. also I double checked username, password, url and port.
To connect to an RDS MySQL instance from MySQL WOrkbench on your dev machine, check a few things.
First, get the full endpoint to the database from AWS Management console.
Ensure the database is publicly accessable.
Also, make sure that you set up your inbound rules correctly.
Once you do these things, you can use MySQL Workbench to connect.
In the hostname field, make sure you put in the hostname you copied from AWS Management console. Do not put in extra information such as:
dbc:mysql://forxxxxxxxxxxxxx.us-west-2.rds.amazonaws.com
make sure it is:
forxxxxxxxxxxxxx.us-west-2.rds.amazonaws.com
THen specify the user name and password and MySQL Workbench will connect:
I am trying to connect to a remote server database via navicat / sequel pro but having time outs.
I have mysql host, username, password, sql name and tried using ssl certificate but no luck. Not sure what I am missing.
What are some of the best process to test the connection via command line and how can I get this to work
Thanks
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.
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
I'm trying to setup a new connection in MySQL Workbench to MySQL server on my other network computer named say: SERVER
Hostname: SERVER
Port:3306
Username and password I leave blank.
I'm getting "unknown server host"
SERVER has dynamic IP.
How do I provide the correct Hostname?
I don't think that you can connect to a computer of your network with its name only in MySQL Workbench.
So, if you can't allocate a fixed IP with DHCP to your computer running MySQL maybe you could use port forwarding in your router config (localhost:port -> computer2_ip:mysql_port) so you will be able to connect to localhost:port in MySQL Workbench. You could also create a tunnel between the two computer but I think this is rather a question for ServerFault.
