I mounted a new VirtualBox Machine with Vagrant, and inside that VM I installed Mysql Server. How can I connect to that server outside the vm? I already forward the port 3306 of the Vagrantfile , but when I try to connect to the mysql server, it`s resposts with the error:
‘reading initial communication packet’
ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 0
Make sure MySQL binds to 0.0.0.0 and not 127.0.0.1 or it will not be accessible from outside the machine
You can ensure this by editing the
/etc/mysql/my.conffile and looking for thebind-addressitem–you want it to look likebind-address = 0.0.0.0. Then save this and restart MySQL:If you are doing this on a production server, you want to be aware of the security implications, discussed here: https://serverfault.com/questions/257513/how-bad-is-setting-mysqls-bind-address-to-0-0-0-0
