Connect your MySQL Database
Enter your connection credentials.
Avoid using local IP address (127.0.0.1) or private IP addresses like 192.168.1.100 (192.168.X.X). A private IP address for a server is like a private address of your device in a home or office network which can only be accessed from within the network and not from outside.
Typically, you can find these details in the configuration files of the application that interacts with your database, such as a config.php, .env, or other server-side configuration files. Alternatively, you may access these details from your database management system like phpMyAdmin or directly through MySQL command line using the status command.
