External MySQL Database

[michaelhoffman]

Hello,

I was wondering if it's possible for me to connect to my MySQL database externally? At the moment it only allows "localhost:3306".

 

Kind Regards,

Yes, you just have to enable remote access in Plesk. To do that, you edit the database user. The options for remote access are at the bottom of the permissions page.

Once it's enabled, you simply connect to tommy.heliohost.org:3306 with a client app.
