Cannot Connect nodejs to mysql

I am running Node.js 0.10.31 on windows and my mySQL 5.5.35 on virtual-box ubuntu running on 192.168.2.150. Now to connect node js to mysql i have used following connector :

https://github.com/felixge/node-mysql

Code :

var mysql = require('mysql');
var connection = mysql.createConnection({
host : '192.168.2.150',
user : 'root',
password : '*****',
port : 3306
});

connection.connect(function(err) {
if (err) {
console.error('error connecting: ' + err.stack);
return;
}

console.log('connected as id ' + connection.threadId);
});


connection.query('SELECT 1', function(err, rows) {
// connected! (unless `err` is set)
console.log(err, rows);
});

In my.cnf file bind address is 0.0.0.0. Moreover, in the user table i have given permission to all database to root@192.168.2.150. But, still i am not able to connect from node to mysql and it gives the following error. I have even tried to the Node js 0.8.2 version but still it doesn't work. can anyone point out the error?

Error:

 error connecting: Error: ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR: Access denied for user 'root'@'
192.168.2.99' (using password: YES)

Update :

I did try with other users also and granted them full permission in the database. But still wasn't able to resolve the error. But the strange thing is that i am able to connect with the mysql Client

Solution

  • As @Paul stated correctly it's not the problem of NodeJS. If you look carefully You are giving permissions to user root@192.168.2.150 (which says "user root connecting from IP 192.168.2.150"), but in error message is stated:

    Access denied for user 'root'@'192.168.2.99'

    Try to give your root permission for IP where your NodeJS instance is running (192.168.2.99) and it should work.
