尝试连接amazon mysql rds时出错10060

Question

I created a MYSQL Amazon RDS instance and tried accessing it to through MYSQL Workbench from a windows machine.
But I'm getting an 10060 error whereas the Amazon RDS is publicly accessible.
I read some documentation on amazon forums, but I'm unable to understand how to set up VPC .
Any help will be appreciated. thanks.

Answer 1

This error is a result of the inbound connection rule set on your DB instance.

For each RDS database instance we create, there are Inbound & Outbound connection-security groups.

In AWS RDS console, under 'Databases', click on the 'DB Identifier' of your RDS instance. Then in the 'Security group rules' section, click on 'Inbound' type security group and edit the inbound rule to allow appropriate inbound connections.

You get 3 options here, under 'source' column:

• Custom
• Anywhere (Allows connections from any IP. Not recommended for production.)
• My IP (Automatically detects your machine's IP)

Answer 2

1st: add inbound rule. -rds console - instances - details > Security groups(click link) - EC2 Managment Console - at the bottom of the page tab "inbound" - edit > add rule Choose Type: MYSQL/Aurora, Source: My ip -save

2nd: if problem remainded try make sign out/sign in. It helped me two times contract.

Answer 3

I missed enabling public accessibility while creating RDS. We can enable it later too in the modify section of RDS. Hope it helps someone.
