Just out of the blue, I can no longer login to my local (Windows 7 64) DB (MariaDB 10.1.12) when I use a password for a given user. I also have another MySQL running in Vagrant (Ubuntu32 14.04), hence the --port 3305 for the Windows one in these.
$ mysql --version
C:\Program Files\MariaDB 10.1\bin\mysql.exe Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.1.12-MariaDB, for Win64 (AMD64)
All commands given in Windows / Git Bash:
$ mysql --port 3305
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'ODBC'#'localhost' (using password: NO)
The error message appears pretty much instantly, and is expected.
Then with a username that exists (not literally the one below):
$ mysql --port 3305 -u my_username
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'my_username'#'localhost' (using password: NO)
Again, the error message appears immediately as expected.
The question:
In the same console, this command NEVER gets any response whatsoever. It's like MariaDB hangs/freezes (until Ctrl + C), even after an hour of waiting in the background. It seems to only happen when the -p parameter is set:
$ mysql --port 3305 -u my_username -pcorrect_password
$ mysql --port 3305 -u my_username -p
With the latter one, there should be a password prompt, but it also never appears. This config has worked before and nothing (that I know of) has changed? And MariaDB itself is working, since it does respond to the other commands. Why would a password prompt hang it?
Because Mariadb client also inherit a lot of MySQL code and behavior , so what is writing inside Mysql documentation : Connecting to the MySQL Server may also happens to mariadb client.
On Unix, MySQL programs treat the host name localhost specially, in a
way that is likely different from what you expect compared to other
network-based programs. For connections to localhost, MySQL programs
attempt to connect to the local server by using a Unix socket file.
This occurs even if a --port or -P option is given to specify a port
number. To ensure that the client makes a TCP/IP connection to the
local server, use --host or -h to specify a host name value of
127.0.0.1, or the IP address or name of the local server. You can also specify the connection protocol explicitly, even for localhost
Apparently, mariadb client connect to 3305 even with the --port parameter. Since port 3305 is not running maraidb agent BUT the port is open, so mariadb client just wait until timeout (typical TCP/IP client tools behavior). If 3305 is not open, mariadb client will give connection failure ASAP .

I have MySQL setup in a PC on my local network, how do I connect to it?
I also have MySQL installed on this computer (which I want to use to connect to the database).
I tried the following but it's not working:
mysql -u user -h 192.168.1.28:3306 -p password
ERROR 2005 (HY000): Unknown MySQL server host '192.168.1.28:3306' (0)
EDIT
Thanks for your help. Anyway, I connect without 3306 and I have another problem. MACBOOK is the name of my client computer.
mysql -u user -ppassword -h 192.168.1.28
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'user'#'MACBOOK' (using password: YES)
Thanks.
That was a very useful question! Since we need to run the application with a centralized database, we should give the privileges to that computer in LAN to access the particular database hosted in LAN PC. Here is the solution for that!
Go to MySQL server
Type the following code to grant access for other pc:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'#'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'root_password';
then type:
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Replace % with the IP you want to grant access for!
Users who can Install MySQL Workbench on MySQL Server Machine
If you use or have MySQL Workbench on the MySQL Server PC you can do this with just a few clicks. Recommend only for development environment.
Connect to MySQL Server
Find this option Users and Privileges from Navigator and click on it.
Select root user and change value for Limit to Hosts Matching to %.
The click Apply at the bottom.
This should enable root user to access MySQL Server from remote machine.
Since you have MySQL on your local computer, you do not need to bother with the IP address of the machine. Just use localhost:
mysql -u user -p
or
mysql -hlocalhost -u user -p
If you cannot login with this, you must find out what usernames (user#host) exist in the MySQL Server locally. Here is what you do:
Step 01) Startup MySQL so that no passwords are require no passwords and denies TCP/IP connections
service mysql restart --skip-grant-tables --skip-networking
Keep in mind that standard SQL for adding users, granting and
revoking privileges are disabled.
Step 02) Show users and hosts
select concat(''',user,'''#''',host,'''') userhost,password from mysql.user;
Step 03) Check your password to make sure it works
select user,host from mysql.user where password=password('YourMySQLPassword');
If your password produces no output for this query, you have a bad
password.
If your password produces output for this query, look at the users
and hosts. If your host value is '%', your should be able to connect
from anywhere. If your host is 'localhost', you should be able to
connect locally.
Make user you have 'root'#'localhost' defined.
Once you have done what is needed, just restart mysql normally
service mysql restart
If you are able to connect successfully on the macbook, run this
query:
SELECT USER(),CURRENT_USER();
USER() reports how you attempted to authenticate in MySQL
CURRENT_USER() reports how you were allowed to authenticate in
MySQL
Let us know what happens !!!
UPDATE 2012-02-13 20:47 EDT
Login to the remote server and repeat Step 1-3
See if any user allows remote access (i.e, host in mysql.user is '%'). If you do not, then add 'user'#'%' to mysql.user.
Follow a simple checklist:
Try pinging the machine ping 192.168.1.2
Ensure MySQL is running on the specified port 3306 i.e. it has not been modified.
Ensure that the other PC is not blocking inbound connections on that port. If it is, add a firewall exception to allow connections on port 3306 and allow inbound connections in general.
It would be nice if you could post the exact error as it is displayed when you attempt to make that connection.
mysql -u user -h 192.168.1.2 -p
This should be enough for connection to MySQL server.
Please, check the firewall of 192.168.1.2 if remote connection to MySQL server is enabled.
Regards
In Ubuntu Follow these steps:
Set bind-address at /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d
Change bind-address = 127.0.0.1 to bind-address = 192.24.805.50 # your IP
Grant permission for the remote machine
mysql>GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'#'[remoteip]' IDENTIFIED
BY 'anypassword' WITH GRANT OPTION;
Then try connect from remote machine
mysql -u root -h 192.24.805.50 -p
Connecting to any mysql database should be like this:
$mysql -h hostname -Pportnumber -u username -p (then enter)
Then it will ask for password. Note: Port number should be closer to -P or it will show error. Make sure you know what is your mysql port. Default is 3306 and is optional to specify the port in this case. If its anything else you need to mention port number with -P or else it will show error.
For example:
$mysql -h 10.20.40.5 -P3306 -u root -p (then enter)
Password:My_Db_Password
Gubrish about product you using.
mysql>_
Note: If you are trying to connect a db at different location make sure you can ping to that server/computer.
$ping 10.20.40.5
It should return TTL with time you got back PONG.
If it says destination unreachable then you cannot connect to remote mysql no matter what.
In such case contact your Network Administrator or Check your cable connection to your computer till the end of your target computer. Or check if you got LAN/WAN/MAN or internet/intranet/extranet working.
actually you shouldn't specify port in the host name. Mysql has special option for port (if port differs from default)
kind of
mysql --host=192.168.1.2 --port=3306
You don't have to specify ':3306' after the IP, it's the default port for MySQL.
And if your MySQL server runs with another port than 3306, then you have to add '-P [port]' instead of adding it to the IP address.
The MySQL client won't recognize the syntax "host:port", you HAVE to use -P [port] instead.
And btw, if you use '-p password', it won't work and will ask you the password again. You have to stick the password to the -p : -ppassword. (still, it's a very bad habit, because anyone that could do a PS on your server could see the plain password...)
You should use this:
>mysql -u user -h 192.168.1.2 -P 3306 -ppassword
or this:
>mysql -u user -h 192.168.1.2 -ppassword
...because 3306 is a default port number.
mysql Options
I have a problem connecting to a docker mysql DB through the Intellij UI.
I am able to connect using the following command through the terminal:
mysql -h localhost -P 3306 --protocol=tcp -u root -p db_name --password=password
Note the user of the --protocol flag, without this I could not connect. In addition, I assume that since I can connect through the terminal to the docker DB then setup is correct, i.e. the port is exposed and I am able to connect.
In Intellij I use the following connection settings - I am not sure where you specify the protocol of the connection, in case this resolved the issue. I've also tried using 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost which as I read will use the tcp protocol. But no luck.
I've tried the latest MYSQL Driver (8) for the connection as well as the MySQL for 5.1 version.
The error I get is the following(though the password and username are triple checked, and I am able to connect through the terminal):
The specified database user/password combination is rejected:
[28000][1045] Access denied for user 'root'#'localhost' (using
password: YES)
Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.
i have a problem with our new database. The only way to access the database is throw a SSH tunnel. But it doesn't work...
I use following commands:
sshpass -p <PASSWORD> ssh <USER>#<DOMAIN> -p <PORT> -L 3306:localhost:3306 -f -N
I think the ssh tunnel works and is established.
Now I want to connect via Shell-File the database.
deposit=`mysql -h localhost --port=3306 -u <DATABASEUSER> --password=<DATABASEPASSWORD> --skip-column-names -e "<MYSQLSYNTAX>"`
But there is always folowing error:
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user '<DATABASEUSER>'#'localhost' (using password: YES)
Do you have any ideas or am I doing something wrong?
Thank you very much!
Assuming all your permissions are okay, it may be worth swapping localhost for 127.0.0.1.
As per the MySQL docs: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/connecting.html
On Unix, MySQL programs treat the host name localhost specially, in a
way that is likely different from what you expect compared to other
network-based programs. For connections to localhost, MySQL programs
attempt to connect to the local server by using a Unix socket file.
This occurs even if a --port or -P option is given to specify a port
number. To ensure that the client makes a TCP/IP connection to the
local server, use --host or -h to specify a host name value of
127.0.0.1, or the IP address or name of the local server.
As I understand you are trying to create a tunnel between your computer and a remote computer that's running SQL server. In your ssh command substitute 3306:localhost:3306 with the remote computer IP address. Note this should be its internal local IP address if you are not in the same local network as the remote computer. Check your SQL Database permissions, username and password as well.
I want to connect to remote MySQL via ssh tunnel with user that has 'localhost' access.
I use this to make a tunnel:
ssh -f -N -L 33306:localhost:3306 user#remote-host
and this to connect to host:
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 33306 -uuser -ppassword
The error i get is:
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'user'#'remote-host' (using password: YES)
The problem is that user 'user'#'remote-host' (or 'user'#'%') does not exist, only 'user'#'localhost' does.
Is there a way to force remote host, without server-side modifications into thinking that i come from localhost? That's the only reason I would do the connection via ssh tunnel anyway.
Note:
If I want to connect with this command:
mysql -h localhost -P 33306 -uuser -ppassword
I get this error:
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
Additional data:
On remote server in /etc/hosts the values are like this:
127.0.0.1 localhost
remote-ip remote-host
The simple way to create MySQL Tunnel to REMOTE HOST:
$ ssh -fNL TEMP_PORT:localhost:MYSQL_SERVER_PORT USER#SERVER_NAME
Test:
$ mysql -u root -p -h 127.0.0.1 -P TEMP_PORT
Please note that localhost and 127.0.0.1 are treated differently in mysql on unix.
Quoting:
On Unix, MySQL programs treat the host name localhost specially, in a way that is likely different from what you expect compared to other network-based programs. For connections to localhost, MySQL programs attempt to connect to the local server by using a Unix socket file
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/connecting.html:
Furthermore, mysql client would silently try to use a socket file even if you explicitly specify -P on your command line:
This occurs even if a --port or -P option is given to specify a port number. To ensure that the client makes a TCP/IP connection to the local server, use --host or -h to specify a host name value of 127.0.0.1
Effectively, using this command
mysql -h localhost -P 33306 -uuser -ppassword
you're simply trying to connect to your local mysqld which is missing
Considering this, your question boils down to connecting to a remote server available over a domain socket.
If installing additional software meets your requirements 'without server-side modifications' you could use socat as described here:
https://www.debian-administration.org/users/dkg/weblog/68.
Tailored for mysql, it could work as follows:
install socat on both ends
socat "UNIX-LISTEN:your_local_path/mysql.sock,reuseaddr,fork" EXEC:'ssh user#remote-host socat STDIO UNIX-CONNECT\:/your_server_path/mysql.sock"
mysql -S your_local_path/mysql.sock -u user
I have MySQL setup in a PC on my local network, how do I connect to it?
I also have MySQL installed on this computer (which I want to use to connect to the database).
I tried the following but it's not working:
mysql -u user -h 192.168.1.28:3306 -p password
ERROR 2005 (HY000): Unknown MySQL server host '192.168.1.28:3306' (0)
EDIT
Thanks for your help. Anyway, I connect without 3306 and I have another problem. MACBOOK is the name of my client computer.
mysql -u user -ppassword -h 192.168.1.28
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'user'#'MACBOOK' (using password: YES)
Thanks.
