10060 Mysql Error Code
everyone, this problem is pretty simple to solve. If you're getting error 10060, this means that you ARE NOT ALLOWED mysql workbench error 10060 to access the web server remotely. Usually we (I mean, I) access the mysql databases using php and this is on the SAME server. Thus we use 'localhost' to connect. But if you mysql odbc error 10060 were to for example access the same web database using a local machine running VB, the story is different. First, here's what you should NOT do. I'm saying this because I noticed some responses had these as action steps. So, 1. DON'T change any ports 2. DON'T close existing ports and reopen new ones as it may affect other apps. 3. DON'T disable any firewalls. Now here's
Cannot Connect To Mysql Server On Localhost 10060
what you MUST do: 1. on your connection string, make sure that you're using the SERVER'S correct IP. On the other hand, you can use the domain name, and this is what I do. 2. The rest of the parameters are the same. I mean they're what you want or have set. 3. NOW the critical thing. First you've got to tell your web server that you need to accept remote connections. You can easily do this using the cpanel. When you're asked for the remote host name, type in % (the percentage sign) to mean ANY HOST. 4. Finally, you may have to tell the web server's firewall that you're making a remote connection from your machine. To do this, cpanel allows you to add your own IP into a 'white list'. In most cases, cpanel shows you a list of class C IPs and your one should be there. Select it. Save the settings. Now go into your app and run the program - eg: in VB. Should work just fine!

I doubt it is however. Very likely to be a NAT problem. –jweyrich Apr 30 '10 at 12:51 @jweyrich: You were very right, the ISP have blocked all ports but 21, 80 and 3389. –Anonymous May 1 '10 at 9:12 add a comment| 7 Answers 7 active oldest votes up vote 3 down vote I suppose your mysql server is running on Windows...thus open a DOS window and type: netstat -an You should find a row like this: TCP 0.0.0.0:3306 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING This tell you that mysql server is running and listening on TCP port 3306. Another test you can do is to telnet (from another pc) to your mysql server: telnet ip_mysql_server 3306 This should open a telnet session: Connected to server_name.

When I try to connect to it using external.ip = my ip address from http://www.whatismyip.com/ in command prompt: mysql -h external.ip -u root -p it returns: ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on external.ip (10060) I can, however, connect it to it when I change external.ip to the ip address listed with the ipconfig command: mysql -h ipconfig.ip -u root -p I already changed the permissions for root to accept any host (using connect to mysql commands like those from Accessing a mysql database from external host/ip? (ie: mysql workbench)). In the database: SELECT host, user FROM user; returns (to summarize): | host | user | ----------------- | % | root | Also, in my my.ini file, there is no line that says skip-networking. It worked fine when I tried this the other day on a different network where external.ip was the same as ipconfig.ip. Could this be the source of the problem or is there something else? mysql database-connection ip-address ipconfig share|improve this question asked Jun 17 '13 at 19:54 xgord 1,6921027 I'll just assume you know that having root accessible to the world is a bad idea. Check your firewall. If whatsmyip reports a different ip address than your internal address, for instance, if you are behind a router, then you need to open/forward a port on your firewall/router –Russell Uhl Jun 17 '13 at 20:01 Agree with @RussellUhl: you're almost certainly behind a NAT router which is not forwarding the relevant port (usually 3306). –eggyal Jun 17 '13 at 20:03 Two things to check: 1) Are you on a home network behind a NAT device? If so, you probably need to configure it to direct incoming traffic on the MySQL port to the correct server on your home network. 2) Is the firewall on your serv
