Please explain in more detail what you have trouble with.  Can you access the database from other tools like SSMS or dbeaver ?

That was my 2nd problem... so I looked into it, als the problem must be in the connection itself.

And ... the problem was ... I used the wrong IP adres 😓. I now use the IP adres of my host and everything works fine.
