website A: hosted on some free web host.
website B: my server
I want to connect from website B-(client) to mysql server of website A-(my server).
I’ve granted remote permission on mysql user with %.
But connection doesn’t work. I’ve tried to run php script (mysql_connect) on different free web hosts.
- 000webhost.com : Can’t connect to MySQL server on ‘My SERVER IP’ (4)
- biz.nf : Lost connection to MySQL server during query
same script different mysql errors.
this php script run smoothly on my online SERVER, and also on localhost setup (connecting remotely to SERVER).
Is something else I’ve to configure on my SERVER?
I know that free web hosts doesn’t allow remote mysql connection but in my situation I’m trying to connect with my own mysql server.
Does “remote mysql access” means both in and out connetion?
I’ve search a lot, something to do with ip-binding or port? I dont know where is actual problem?
Kindly help me out.
Does your remote website’s firewall allow external connections to the MySQL Port 3306?
