    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)

Answer 1

Enable Remote Root Access to MySql. click here for more details

Snippet taken from above:

create a new HOST for root and allow root to login from anywhere.

mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password' WITH GRANT OPTION;
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
mysql> exit
