Connecting to MySQL across Domain and workgroup
I have a mysql running in a box connected to a domain. I tried to connect it from a laptop not connected to the same domain. It is running as a workgroup. Though the parameters are correct, I got an error ‘Error Code: 1045′
An error occured while establishing the connection. Type: java.sql.SQLException Error Code: 1045 SQL State: 28000 Message: Access denied for user 'root'@'192.168.10.74' (using password: NO)
But I am able to connect to Oracle DB which is running in the same environment. Googling fetch me some results saying we need to give permissions suitable for the situation. I ran the following query which solved the connectivity issue.
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'your_root_password';
