Trying to connect to a dababase which is in a different server:

Command line

php symfony configure:database "mysql:host=<IP>;dbname=<db_name>" <username> <password>

Databases.yml

  all:   
    doctrine:     
    class: sfDoctrineDatabase     
      param:       
      dsn: 'mysql:host=<IP>;dbname=<db_name>'
      username: <username>       
      password: <password>

Getting error:

PDO Connection Error: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond

Have you tried, from command line, to connect to that server? To me it sounds more like a problem on the sql server side. - Vlad Jula-Nedelcu
Yes, tried from command line.. Tried connecting to two different server, same error.. Is there any config that needs to be changed in the server to allow remote access ? - TomCat

You need to grant access to the user from that host. Something like

GRANT ALL ON mydb.* TO 'someuser'@'somehost';
