How can I connect to remote MySQL database through SSH from java application? Small code example is helpful for me and I’d appreciate this.
My understanding is that you want to access a mysql server running on a remote machine and listening on let’s say port 3306 through a SSH tunnel.
To create such a tunnel from port 1234 on your local machine to port 3306 on a remote machine using the command line ssh client, you would type the following command from your local machine:
To do the same thing from Java, you could use JSch, a Java implementation of SSH2. From its website:
For an example, have a look at
PortForwardingL.java. Once the session connected, create your JDBC connection to MySQL using something likejdbc:mysql://localhost:1234/[database]as connection URL.
