Host – The IP or URL used to access the database.

The requested details are relatively straightforward. The above is the connection information for a standard database, but you can also choose the SSH tab to use SSH to connect to your database, depending on your server’s configuration and security.

When you launch Sequel Pro, if you have no databases set up yet, you’ll be greeted by the screen that asks you to create a new server connection.

Getting started is a simple process you download the application, install it, and then launch Sequel Pro! Setting up a New Database Connection

Sequel Pro is an easy way to manage your databases on macOS. This provides significant security advantages over methods that require users to login using only a MySQL user and corresponding password. Sequel Pro also provides options to use SSH keys from within the application, in order to let you use it to manage databases over SSH, using keys rather than a username and password. You can set up as many database connections as you need in a favorites list, allowing quick access to those which you need to get at repeatedly. Sequel Pro is a native application for macOS. This post, however, will illustrate the use of a third option for macOS users: Sequel Pro While useful, this can be inherently insecure, providing a web interface for MySQL users.Īnother option is MySQL Workbench, a program that can be downloaded for use on many major operating systems, and can remotely connect to databases for management and planning purposes. Users can head to a particular address and port, login as a database user, and visually manage databases on that server. This is a web based tool, one that is installed on your web server. It seems that one of the most common tools used for that purpose is phpMyAdmin. Many developers who use MySQL for their databases may be pros at managing MySQL databases from the command line, but others really need a visual tool, something with a graphical interface, to use when managing databases.

If your host does not allow this, then unfortunately, you will be out of luck and have no choice but to use phpMyAdmin.This article is part of a series created in partnership with SiteGround. If your host is cPanel based, which most shared hosts are, it should be very easy to add this. Second, if your host allows it, add your IP Address to the list of IPs allowed to connect to the database. Second, the MySQL server is most likely not configured to allow direct connections from your machine's IP address OR the host's firewall is blocking you from connection to their network on that port.įirst, find out the correct public IP address of the MySQL server. There is no way to know without asking your host. It may be the IP adress of a phpMyAdmin server, or your web server. The URL you provided may or may not actually resolve to the IP address of the database server. When you attempt to connect from your desktop you will be connecting directly to the MySQL server, and not through the web server.įirst,y ou do not have the correct IP address of the database server you are connecting to. In your case the IP is it connection to is a non-routable IP internal to your host (See RFC1918) PhpMyAdmin is running on the web server and connecting to MySQL either on the local machine or via an IP Address that is configured on the MySQL server to allow connections. I am assuming you are using shared hosting. When I connect using phpMyAdmin I notice it points to IP '172.17.70.16', but when I try .com as host in Sequel Pro, I get this message:Īnd when I try 172.17.70.16, I get this message: I can connect to database with phpMyAdmin, but I cannot connect with Sequel Pro, using the same credentials.
