Is it possible to connect to remote SQL?

[bWolfie 140]

Hi,

 

I've been trying to connect my server to a SQL database located on a different host.

 

I.e.

My server is located on Host 1 (11.11.11.11).

My SQL files are located on Host 2 (22.22.22.22).

 

I thought I had set everything up properly, but I receive the following error when trying to start the server:

 

(while starting server on host 1)

[SQL]: Access denied for user 'remote_user'@'11.11.11.11' (using password: YES)

I want to connect to 'remote_user'@'22.22.22.22'

 

Before delving further into this, is it even possible to host SQL files elsewhere while having your server files on a different host?

 

Thanks.

Yes, the hostname setting for your database is there for a reason. You might want to check the permission and hostname setting for your MySQL user.

Hello,

 

you just need to add privilege to 11.11.11.11 to your database in 22.22.22.22 so that it will grant access to your db
