errorError: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND - mysql

Question

I\'m running a server on c9.io using Node.js and trying to connect to Mysql I guess I get this error:

Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND

Answer 1

This code works for me.

var mysql = require('mysql');

var con = mysql.createConnection({
    host: '127.0.0.1',
    port: '3306',
    user: 'yourUsername',
    password: '**********'
});

con.connect(function(err){
    if(err) throw err;
    console.log('connected!');
});

the host and port name find them in your mysql server. in-place of '127.0.0.1' you can use 'localhost'
