Hello @Gutierrez4 ,
For the above error, make sure that you have specified the correct server name, which can be serverip: portno or servername. If you use the server name, place the host name in the Server field and in the Database field.
Also make sure that the MySQL service is running on the server to which you want to connect.
You can also try using the ODBC connection for MySQL.
Best regards
Liang
