I have a MySql Server 5.7 running as service on one computer of a LAN.
My application is installed and running fine on the same computer. I have 'Shared with everyone' set for the directory where my application is located. In the same directory I have put the libmysql.dll and the FDConnectionDefs.ini files.
My application is running fine on that computer. On the other computers on the LAN I created a link to the directory where my application is shared. When I try to run my application from these LAN systems they produce the error message
[FireDac][Phys][mySql] can't connect to mySql server 127.0.0.1 on port 3306... (10061).
All machines are running Windows 10 on 64 bit processors.
Here what i've tried to resolve the problem:
make sure that the user, password and host (%) are the same in mySql Profile and FDConnectionDefs.ini.
I've tried with different users even with root, i've tried to change host (%) to put the IP address of the computer trying to connect in the mySql profile.
I make sure that i have permissions to run my application and mySql and that the port 3306 is open in the Firewall/Kaspersky on each computer of the LAN. But always the same error message.
127.0.0.1 is a special IP address - the "loopback" address that is typically resolved for localhost on most systems. It is a private internal IP address that a computer can use to refer to itself. It has no meaning to other systems on a LAN since every computer will recognize 127.0.0.1 as meaning itself.
This means that when you are running the application on a remote system it will be trying to connect to a MySQL server running locally rather than on a server elsewhere.
You'll need to configure your FireDac components to connect to the actual LAN IP address that belongs to the system hosting the MySQL server. You will probably also need to make sure that your MySQL users are set up to authenticate from an IP other than localhost.

I am using a software - (Ingress) by FingerTec which uses mysql database.
Some setups of this system are only using a single installation - consisting of a mysql server and a client locally on the same machine.
I have been having issues since I started to use the software when it is installed on a user's laptop/PC. The problem is that frequently when running the mysql server and client, a window pops up asking for the local IP address and port (127.0.0.1 and 3306 by default). To continue using the software, one needs to run IngressDB installer where you need to 'Update Connection' by giving the root user and pass for mysql and then 'Upgrade Database' to refresh the database for any new settings. After this step the software runs fine.
Yesterday I managed to simulate this issue by changing the static IP on my laptop while connected directly to one of their Access Controllers. I had to re-Run Ingress DBinstaller.
Now my question is this:
When using your machine(laptop/pc) it is normally getting IP add, def GW, Subnet etc from a dhcp server therefore there is no guarantee that you will always get the same IP leased unless there is a reservation to the machine's mac address.
As described earlier - when ever there is a change of IP address leased from DHCP, a window pops up showing the loopback address 127.0.0.1 and the mysql port 3306. So it never shows the local IP address (ex. 192.168.1.100). So I was thinking - why is the loopback IP not enough for mysql client/server as this stays the same forever.
Is is normal that software using mysql database server requires a static local IP on the machine hosting it? I am referring only to instances where both mysql server and client reside on the same machine.
I appreciate your thoughts about this and maybe any other way I can get around this apart from making an IP address reservation in the DHCP server. Setting a static IP address manually on the LAN adapter is no solution for me as this would limit the machine to connect only to a certain network and cannot be used at other places.
If the client is the same local machine as the server, the MYSQL server specifically does not need a static IP because it pretty much already has one: 'localhost' or '127.0.0.1'. If the client is not on the same machine as the server, the server would need a static IP.
If the machine is acting as a server for other content, yes, it would need a static IP. If you're doing this at home, chances are that your access point will let you configure it for a static IP.
Apologies for the bad english, i'm french. :D
I've been looking for an answer since approximatively 4 days, and I don't know how to fix my issue.
So:
I want to virtualize two servers using virtualBox on Windows7 and i want them all on the same local network.
My VMs are running on Ubuntu 16.04
On the first VM I installed a lamp web server with MySQL 5.7 and i add phpmyadmin.
On the second VM I installed Jira standalone
--> I need to connect to my Database from my Jira server
So I used the Bridge adapter on each machine:
network configuration
network configuration
Ip adresses are attributed with the DHCP protocol.
The SQL machine ip is 192.168.6.80
The Jira machine ip is 192.168.6.101
The Host machine ip is 192.168.6.87
I'm able to ping each machine so there is no problem.
SQL server
When I start the machine everything seems to work, i can access from my SQL server:
localhost : home page of apache 2 saying "It Works"
localhost:5671 :
[���
5.7.18-0ubuntu0.16.04.1� ���UKBeM�ÿ÷�ÿ����������T(DGKg1hwd=�mysql_native_password���ÿ„Got
packets out of order
localhost/phpmyadmin : the index page where I can connect perfectly with root.
Host Machine (Windows)
192.168.6.80 : home page of apache 2 saying "It Works"
192.168.6.80:5671 :
[���
5.7.18-0ubuntu0.16.04.1� ���UKBeM�ÿ÷�ÿ����������T(DGKg1hwd=�mysql_native_password���ÿ„Got
packets out of order
192.168.6.80/phpmyadmin : the index page where I can connect perfectly with root.
Jira server
Here when i start the machine it works during approximatively 2-3 minutes,
I'am able to connect via:
mysql -u root -p -h 192.168.6.80 -P 5671
I am perfectly connected and i can also access to all the other adresses.
And then it stop working on this machine only.
Unable to connect
Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at 192.168.6.80.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
And when i re-try to connect via mysql on terminal I get the Error 2003 (HYOOO)
This happen only when i use the connection of my work, at home it works perfectly without stopping!!
I have few leads:
problems of proxy authentication
problems of firewall configuration
i am in a private network with a domain name called something.eu
And when i launch firefox the proxy shows up automatically:
and-etc-ha.something.eu:9090
So i'm invited to enter my id and password.
My id is : luc.myName#something.eu
After that i'm connected to internet with firefox but not in terminal when i want to use apt.
I search on the web and i found this:
export http_proxy="http://Username:password#proxyip:port/"
and
export http_proxy="http://Domain\user:pasword#proxyip:port/"
So I tried different ways and i was able to download with apt. But the internet connexion with firefox was unstable. But if I use firefox on my host machine the connexion is perfect.
I also tried with settings -> network -> network proxy -> method manual
http: and-etc-ha.something.eu port: 9090
I don't know if I was understandable, tell me!^^
If you have any ideas to help me to solve this problem let me know.
Bye!
I found the cause: In fact there was a ip conflict inside the LAN because the DHCP was giving in-use ip address.
I decide to use the NAT connection with Port Forwarding on VirtualBox.
With that configuration I'm able to access my VMs on my LAN using the host ip address followed by the port of my choice.
I have installed MySQL on Ubuntu using SSH and would like to connect phpMyAdmin installed on a Windows machine.
I tried to add a server like standard server, but I can not log in to MySQL server using SSH.
Does phpMyAdmin support to connect a remote server using SSH? If yes, how can I configure a private key for phpMyAdmin or do I need a SSH client for this?
I think there's a bit of misunderstanding that might be hindering you sorting this out.
SSH is the Secure Shell protocol, which allows a user to remotely access the command line of a server. You can access MySQL via SSH by using SSH to start a command line session on the server and using the mysql command line client as if you were at the machine directly.
phpMyAdmin can connect to a local MySQL instance (where MySQL and your webserver run on the same machine) or connect to another machine through the network (where MySQL is running on one machine and your webserver is running on another -- the connection in this case is via the the port used by MySQL itself, 3306). In either case, you can access phpMyAdmin itself from any browser on the network; it just appears as any web page. The communication between MySQL and phpMyAdmin can be encrypted (via SSL) if you wish, but still happens via MySQL communication and not over SSH. At no point is SSH used for the communication from the web server to the MySQL server.
So in your case, since you wish to install phpMyAdmin on the Windows box, you'd simply edit your config.inc.php to connect to the IP address or hostname of the Ubuntu server with the $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'hostname'; directive, using the actual hostname instead. You'd then access phpMyAdmin from anywhere on the network by using the hostname or IP address of the Windows machine.
If, instead, you wish to install phpMyAdmin on to the Ubuntu machine, you could use the host name 'localhost' in config.inc.php and then access phpMyAdmin from the Windows machine (or any other machine) using the Ubuntu IP address/host name in your web browser.
It all depends which machine you wish to be the web server. phpMyAdmin runs under IIS or Apache runs under Windows, but Ubuntu makes installing all the programs easy through the package manager, so that's what I generally do in this situation.
Hope that helps clear it up a bit.
Is it possible to do the following?:
I have a local Mac running OS X Lion with a MySQL Server installed which runs different processes regularly and stores data into a local DB.
On the other hand I have an Amazon EC2 instance.
What I would like to do is to use the Amazon instance to perform certain cronjobs (using its own resources) but connecting to the data that is on my localhost (my computer) and performing basic SQL actions like updating the data, inserting, etc.
I don't know if this helps, but I have a static IP. Is there any way I can "open" my IP so the Amazon instance can recognize my home computer as a valid MySQL server?
Thanks for your help, any tip in the right direction will be much appreciated.
If your EC2 instance is connecting to your local db you'll need a static IP locally. Well not need... but if you don't have it anytime you reset your router or loose power etc your ip will change. You can look into Dynamic DNS as well for your local instance.
Your ISP will not block your port on your local instance. This would be a firewall inside your network that is preventing you from connecting to mysql or a configuration with mysql itself. Users can only connect to mysql from certain IP addresses.
You would have to open up the mysql port on your firewall if you are using one, have the mysql client installed on your EC2 instance, and make sure that the user that had proper grantable permissions.
That said why not run cron locally on the mac?
If you can login to your server via SSH then there's no need to open any other port and no static IP is required. You can use SSH port forwarding instead. From your local machine run:
ssh -C -R 5555:127.0.0.1:3306 <your-server-host>
Now you should be able to connect to your Mac's database running on localhost:3306 from the remote server at localhost:5555.
I'm a mac novice and trying to get a developer setup to develop php sites locally. The sites he develops have a mysql backend and that is on a remote box. We got xampp installed and working, he can connect from the website to the local mysql box but he cannot connect to the remote box. He is using the exact same connection info I am using from my windows system. I do not have any issues. Also the mysql server is setup to accept all users (we are currently using root) regardless of hostname.
I searched his system and I could not find a mysql.sock file. I do not know what this does, but googled some articles that mentioned.
Please help if you can.
Try Telnetting to the server from your host and see if you get a response.
telnet host 3306
If that doesn't work, you probably have some local firewall on your mac that is blocking the connection. Also, one thing you don't mention is that you can connect from a windows computer and not a mac... are they on the same network? If they're on different networks or in different places, that could indicate a local network issue.
This is definitely not an issue with mysql, but with something on the Mac itself.
The mysql.sock file is relevant only to the machine the MySQL server is running on, for local clients to communicate with the server. For any remote machines, they'll be connecting via TCP on port 3306.
Make sure that port 3306 is open in the server machine's firewall, and that MySQL has been configured to allow TCP connections.
