I have paid for a web server at 1and1. And I decided to use MySQL WorkBench.
It asked for cred. in MySQL Workbench.
Logging in phpMyAdmin I have the following information to use when making mySQL connection code.
- Server: dbxxxxxxxx.db.1and1.com via TCP/IP
- Server type: MySQL
- Server version: 5.5.59-0+deb7u1-log - (Debian)
- Protocol version: 10
- User: [email protected]
- Server charset: UTF-8 Unicode (utf8)
In MySQL Workbench
I place Hostname with dbxxxxxxxx.db.1and1.com And username as [email protected] And store the password in the vault.
when testing the connection I get this message.
Connecting to MySQL server ...
Unknown MySQL server host 'dbxxxxxxxx.db.1and1.com' (0)
The DB works fine via the website.
I tried keeping username as root, using the username without the '@', but to no avail.
If you have any experience that you can shed light on what I am doing wrong or not paying attention to, that would be much appreciated.
