I'm trying to establish a connection with Jaspersoft Studio to a MySQL database.
Jaspersoft Studio on (Windows 8) and MySQL is running on a virtual machine with openSUSE on the same hardware.
jdbc:mysql://192.168.178.27:3306/icinga (User and pw are given and correct)
The Error: javaSQLException Access denied for user 'icinga#MyPC.frist.box'
Because I don't have a bind-address line in my /etc/my.cnf I think the database is ready for remote access.
I can access the database with 192.168.178.27/phpMyAdmin and the login data.
Since you are connecting from a 'remote' host, are you sure that you have the user "icinga" granted rights to connecting from other hosts than local?
It's correct that you can use phpmyadmin, because that's running on the same machine as the databases server and is interpreted by the database server as 'localhost'.

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

Tableau Desktop 7.0
Local MySQL database using Xampp
When attempting to connect to a localhost MySQL database server using the native MySQL data connection in Tableau Desktop, I'm getting the following error:
"The connection to the data source might have been lost.
Communication with the Tableau Protocol Server process was lost.
Unable to connect to the server "localhost". Check that the server is running and that you have access privileges to the requested database.
Unable to connect to the server. Check that the server is running and that you have access privileges to the requested database."
When using "Other Databases (ODBC)" in Tableau, I am able to connect and return data. However, I would prefer to use the MySQL connection to avoid the limitations of the Other Databases connection.
I created a specific username in phpmyadmin as well as tried using the root username and password and the same error was returned. I created a user DSN in odbcad32.exe and attempted using multiple versions of the MySQL ODBC driver (3.5, 5.2.7, 5.3.4).
Does anyone have any ideas of what might be causing the error? Really appreciate any help.
A bit late in replying but....
MySQL user connections are based on a combination of username,password AND the host you are connecting from.
If you are connecting to MySQL on the same host as Tableau server, then the connecting host could be seen as '127.0.0.1', 'localhost', '::1' or even a hostname if MySQL is configured to resolve those.
The simple way to test would be to set the host field to '%' for the user you are trying to connect as. I would not recommend this for your root user entry or other accounts with significant privileges.
I am trying to install and test a MySQL ODBC Connector on my machine (Windows 7) to connect to a remote MySQL DB server, but, when I configure and test the connection, I keep getting the following error:
Connection Failed
[MySQL][ODBC 5.3(w) Driver]Access denied for user 'root'#'(my host)' (using password: YES):
The problem is, I can connect with MySQL Workbench (remotely - from my local machine to the remote server) just fine. I have read this FAQ extensively but it's not helping out. I have tried:
Checking if mysql is running on the server (it is. I even tried restarting it many times);
Checking if the port is listening for connection on the remote server. It is.
Connecting to the remote server using MySQL Workbench. It works.
Checking if the IP address and Ports of the remote database are correct;
Checking if the user (root) and password are correct;
Re-entering the password on the ODBC config window;
Checking and modifying the contents of the "my.conf" on the remote server to allow connections from all sides (0.0.0.0);
Including (my host) on the GRANT HOST tables from mySQL (I also tried the wildcard '%' but it's the same as nothing);
Running a FLUSH HOSTS; And FLUSH PRIVILEGES; command on the remote mySQL server to reset the privilege cache;
Turning off my Firewall during the configuration of the ODBC driver;
Checked if the MySQL variable 'skip_networking' is OFF in order to allow remote connections.
What is frustrating is that I can connect with MySQL Workbench on my local machine (with the same IP/user/password), just not with ODBC.
What could I be doing wrong, or what could be messing up my attempt to connect with ODBC?
Update: I managed to set up the ODBC driver and get it running correctly on the server side. I can connect there to the localhost using a command line (with the "isql" command). But I still can't connect over remotely with my Windows 7 machine.
Solved.
As it turns out, it was a permissions problem. I ran the following command on the remote server SQL:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'#'(my_host)' IDENTIFIED BY '(my_password)';
I had run the previous command, but without the "IDENTIFIED BY" password. Then, to reset the mysql permissions cache, I also ran
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
And now it works.
Worked for me too only with 64bit odbc driver not for mySQL 32 bit.
We had a similar case that 'user'#'%' was granted at server but ODBC connect failed at a PC while workbench connect successfully.
MariaDB 10.0.31,
MySQL ODBC 3.51,
MySQL Workbench 8.0
Solved by install MariaDB Connector/ODBC 3.1 instead of the MySQL ODBC (https://downloads.mariadb.org/connector-odbc/).
I have mysql DB on cloud linux server. I am able to connect db when I access it through the putty mean ssh connection.
But when I try to access this DB remotely by toad , it couldn't connect to the DB.
I tried edition my.cnf file also. But it has no entry regarding "skip-networking" or something which is preventing me to connect.
I couldn't understand why this is happening.
To connect to mysql server through remote computer, you have to give explicit permission particularly to your IP address or computer name
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* to '<username used to log in to mysql>'#'<IP Addess>'
