Remote MariaDB not working

[blasetvrt]

Greetings.

I hope this is the correct section to post this.

I've just created a MySQL Database with MariaDB and assigned it to my default site (blasetvrt.helioho.st). In user configuration, I set it up to be able to connect remotely by any host (I tried with both the dedicated radio button selection for it and the one for specific hosts, putting "%" in there). However, when applying the changes, when I click on the connection information under the database, along with the database name, username etc. the hostname remains as localhost and not my personal url host. I belueve MariaDB is not accepting connection requests because I can't connect to the database remotely from MySQL Workbench.

How do I fix this? Do I need to get this set up by an administrator?

 

Thank you for your time and attention.

Update... It works now on MySQL Workbench but I can't seem to connect from Spring Data?

Try using tommy.heliohost.org or 65.19.141.77 as the host name.

Using your chosen domain for this may work in some instances, but for non-HTTP services, it's not fully supported and things tend to work best when you use the server name (tommy.heliohost.org in your case) as the hostname.
