I am new to amazon cloud. I have gone through different posts in Stack Overflow but couldn't understand what is the problem exactly. I created my SQL db instance and status is available. Assigned security group. Inbound port number is 3306.when I am doing telnet portnumber in commnad line, it is showing "connection to host lost" immediately.
I am trying to connect to rds using MySQL workbench. I want to create db, table and insert some data.
Can somebody
By default an RDS instance is only accessible from within your VPC. If you want to access it from outside your VPC you need to enable the "Publicly Accessible" flag on the RDS instance.

I'm trying to connect to my new AWS RDS I just made.
I followed the "Setting up for RDS" (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/CHAP_SettingUp.html), then the "Tutorial: Create an Amazon VPC for Use with a DB Instance" (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/CHAP_Tutorials.WebServerDB.CreateVPC.html), then the "Creating a MySQL DB Instance and Connecting to a Database on a MySQL DB Instance" (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/CHAP_GettingStarted.CreatingConnecting.MySQL.html) but I'm not able to connect to my DB from my computer or my dedicated server on the web.
Following the previous docs, I have this config :
My DB instance
The VPC
The subnetworks
Example of subnetwork's details :
The first security group :
The second security group, calling the first one :
For the first security group, I put both my private IP and the IP of my dedicated server, and their ports.
I even tried to put 0.0.0.0/0 for SSH and TCP, it didn't work either.
For the DB instance, I tried to add the two security group instead of only the db-securitygroup, it didn't work.
I tried to use a different Port for the DB instance, it didn't work.
With MySQL Workbench or with PDO on my dedicated server, I'm unable to connect to the DB : "SQLSTATE[HY000] [2003] Can't connect to MySQL server on [...]"
I think your security groups are incorrect. If the RDS instance is the only thing you currently have running in the VPC, then you should only have one security group, which is assigned to the RDS server, and that security group should have a rule for port 3306 that allows ingress from your personal IP address, and your dedicated server's IP address.
Take a look to this instruction, pay attention to step 3, 4 and 5. It is for ElasticSearch but I think in your case steps are similar
I have created a AWS RDS database instance and I am trying to connect it to Datagrip. I chose Easy create, MySQL, Freetier and set the name as audiotranscribe. The profile of the instance is as follows:
In Datagrip I selected MySQL as the data source, used the password and username I set the instance up with, and set the hostname as the endpoint:
However, I'm getting the error:
[08001] Could not create connection to database server. Attempted reconnect 3 times. Giving up. java.net.UnknownHostException:
Could anybody explain what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.
The instance is not publicly accessible, so you will not be able to connect to it from the Internet. You will need to either make it publicly accessible (not a good idea) or connect to it through a VPN.
I'm having difficulty to connect mysql Workbench to RDS. I contacted amazon support and they told me this
"I've looked at the configuration of the EB environment and the SG's and they're now in good order, the only item left, as I see its not possible to connect to the RDS DB remotely, the SG sg-882213c3 needs to have another rule added to allow connectivity from the computer with the mysql client. Perhaps, allow 0.0.0.0/0 to TCP port 3306 for temporary access or from the source IP of the computer."
so what I did is this
but the connection still failing
the pervious steps are
I created new new DB Instances called east-mysql2-instance1. For east-mysql2-instance1 Security group is set to rds-launch-wizard (sg-882213c3) and i did modify the inbound to Source sg-882213c3 (rds-launch-wizard). but it wont let me change the type to Mysql/Aurora it stays at custom TCP Rule.
for EC2 Instance I have 2 running instances and I changed both Security groups to
rds-launch-wizard and awseb-e-bdbjjgxvzd-stack-AWSEBSecurity
I terminate my old environment and created new one called Borroup-env-1, I changed the EC2 security groups for the environment to awseb-e-bdbjjgxvzd-stack-AWSEBSecurityGroup-1PTJG896MEOYR and rds-launch-wizard.
I changed Environment properties and added RDS_DB_NAME, RDS_HOSTNAME, RDS_PASSWORD, RDS_PORT, RDS_USERNAME
From your second screenshot, it looks like you are setting up a connection that is:
SSH from your mac desktop to an ec2 instance
connect form the ec2 instance to RDS
If this is the situation you are wanting to achieve I would not be leaving a rule allowing 3306 from 0.0.0.0/0. This is allowing any IP address in the world to connect on port 3306 - a well known port. Additionally, that advice seems to suggest putting that rule against the RDS instance? Overkill - only needs to allow access from your EC2 instance or its subnet.
The first step I would take is use SSH on terminal to verify you can SSH from your mac to the EC2 instance - if this is not working, no point looking at SGs and rules between EC2 and RDS. Once that is working, you can move forward to resolving the connectivity from the ec2 to the RDS. As John noted above, if both the RDS and the EC2 are in the same VPC, you can setup a SG allowing access to the RDS instance from the subnet that the EC2 is in.
As an alternative solution, you can also setup to allow access to the RDS instance directly, without going through the EC2. See Public Accessibility and also subnet requirements here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/USER_VPC.WorkingWithRDSInstanceinaVPC.html Depends on what kind of setup you want...
If the EC2 and RDS are not in the same VPC but are in the same region, you may want to look at setting up VPC peering: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonVPC/latest/UserGuide/vpc-peering.html If they EC2 are RDS are not in the same region or same VPC, you may want to setup Inter region VPC peering: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2017/11/announcing-support-for-inter-region-vpc-peering/
It sounds like you wish to connect from an Amazon EC2 instance to an Amazon RDS instance. Assuming that they are both in the same VPC, the easiest way to configure it is:
Create an App-SG security group and associate it with the EC2 instance. Grant whatever access you need to login/use the instance.
Create a RDS-SG security group and associate it with the RDS database. Permit inbound access from the App-SG security group on port 3306 (MySQL/Aurora).
This basically says that any resources associated with App-SG will be permitted to access any resource associated with RDS-SG.
If that doesn't work, then there's something else (aside from security groups) that needs to be configured.
i am trying to connect AWS db instance through MySQL workbench, the current rdb instance engine is MYSQL 5.6.23 also i am under the free tier plan in AWS ap-southeast region (Singapore)
These are the follwing steps in MySQL workbench
The user name and password is already set by me when i click the Test connection i got error always like this in the below image
So i go to the RDS Security group of this instance amrita2016-rds (sg-970f10f2) in AWS and Add an inbound rule to that group for allowing connections from my machine see the image
after that i tried once again through MYSQL workbench getting same error also i am working under domain network . Please help me to resolve this issue
I'm trying to connect to MySql on Amazon RDS from my computer, using MySql WorkBench, or HeidiSql or even the console Mysql.exe and i'm getting this error all the time:
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'MY-SERVER-NAME' (10060)
In the Security group of the instance I created a new Inbound rule that allows all traffic, and applied it, and still - same error.
I have no active Firewall on my computer, and have good internet access
I am able to access the DB from the Amazon EC3 server, there I am connecting using HeidiSql, and the exact same settings (host, username, password) is just not working on my computer
Still, nothing is working. I'm pretty sure that my security groups is configured to allow outside connections, as can be seen on the next screenshot, there is another place with firewall rules?
I was having the same problem when using an RDS instance on a VPC that I wanted to connect to remotely. To fix the problem, I needed to do the following:
Go to the VPC Management Console in AWS
Go to Internet Gateways (on the left side)
Create and attach an internet gateway to my VPC. Make note of the ID of this gateway.
Go to Route Tables
Edit the route table associated with the subnets associated with your RDS instance
Add a route:
Destination: 0.0.0.0/0
Target: ID of your Internet Gateway
I didn't have this route in my table because I created my VPC manually and without using the wizard, but if you use the wizard it creates this route for you automatically.
Note: This assumes that your security groups are already configured to allow your IP to connect.
The 2003 error is the Access-Denied Error I would be willing to bet that you haven't configured the RDS to accept your IP address.
This can be done by going to DB Security Groups -> Click Default -> and add a new CIDR/IP range. I believe that if you set it to 0.0.0.0/0 it will accept all ip addresses
I use SQLyog for connecting to Amazon RDS from my machine.

The security group settings are just firewall rules. If you can telnet on your configured MySQL port from the host you are having problems then you don't have the security group issue.
Chances are the MySQL grants are not allowing outside IPs. If you know the root user/password and you can use it to connect from your EC2 instance that works, make sure the user you are using to connect from outside has the right privileges. Here is the doc on how to add a new privilege or create a new user:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/grant.html
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/adding-users.html
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/access-denied.html
Did you assign the security group to your RDS instance? If you didn't modify the default security group, then you need to add your security group to your RDS instance.
In my case, my company had two different network connections. When I went to google and searched "What is my IP?" I got one answer; 209.x.y.z. When I went to checkip.amazonaws.com I got another answer; 199.a.b.c.
I had already added VPC Security Group Rules for 209.x.y.z and it turned out I needed them for 199.a.b.c.
Adding rules for 199.a.b.c fixed the issue.
I had same problem as you, all firewall have been opened, but still can not access to my RDS mysql remotely from my local machine. my finally workout is there is a "Public Accessibility" option on your RDS database. default is "No", after I tick it to "YES", everything is running smoothly now.
