Unable to connect remote server mysql database from C# application

Question

I am trying to connect my C# application to web server database(mysql). I am using the following code.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using MySql.Data.MySqlClient;
namespace mySqlConnectivity
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        string myConStr;
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            myConStr = "SERVER=xxx.xx.xxx.xx;Port=80;DATABASE=EmSystem;UID=xxx;PASSWORD=xxx;compress=true";
        }


        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            int mobNo;
            string mobile = textBox3.Text;
            int.TryParse(mobile, out mobNo);

            MySqlConnection conn = new MySqlConnection(myConStr);
            MySqlCommand cmd;
            conn.Open();
            try
            {
                cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
                cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO phonebook(Id,uname,MobileNo) VALUES(@id,@uname,@MobileNo)";
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Id", int.Parse(textBox1.Text));
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@uname", textBox2.Text);
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@MobileNo", mobNo);
                cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
            }
            catch (Exception)
            {
                throw;
            }
            finally
            {
                if (conn.State == ConnectionState.Open)
                {
                    conn.Close();

                }
            }
        }

    }
}

This code is working for local server database But when I am trying to connect with web server database it is giving the following error.

MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlException: Reading from the stream has failed. ---> System.IO.IOException: Unable to read data from the transport connection: A non-blocking socket operation could not be completed immediately. ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: A non-blocking socket operation could not be completed immediately

My IP address and Port is correct because using this I am able to access mysql server database.

Can any body please tell me where is the problem and it there any other way to connect C# application with web server database.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you

Answer 1

From what I see (SERVER=xxx.xx.xxx.xx;Port=80;) you are trying to connect to port 80 (defalut http port). The defalut MySQL port is 3306, so you should change the port to correct one.

Answer 2

您需要使用端口3306，现在您正在使用80，这是Web服务器正在监听的端口，而不是mysql服务器。

Answer 3

In .ini file set following values:

net_read_timeout=99999 

net_write_timeout=99999 

Then restarting db server

This will work.
