I am trying to access Remote MySQL database where my wordpress is installed

The error I am getting seems to be saying that your WordPress blog cannot access its own database. From your WordPress hosting point of view, the connection is nearly always to a local database and not a remote one. Are you really trying to use a database server which is remote to your hosting server ?

Have you talked with your website hosting support ?

define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘databasename’);

/** MySQL database username */
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘user’);

/** MySQL database password */
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘password’);

/** MySQL hostname */
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘50.87……..87’); //IP Address to my server where MYSQL database is located

The IP you have in your wp-config.php is different from your hosts ip, so are you trying to use a remote db here?
If so, is the db server setup to allow remote connections? By default it’ll be running socket connections for localhost only.

Yeah, I have added the remote server IP address to listen to that specific Ip address in Remote My SQL. And the IP address is fine I have just changed for demonstration purpose. But Still getting the error of database connection.

Have you tried connecting to that database locally? Using a tool like https://www.sequelpro.com/ for example to test that the database does actually allow remote connections?

Sounds like a server config issue.

Okay thanks @pross I will give it a try. Thanks for your time

@pross Thanks, Sorry I am late but man I resolved the issue. Actually, everything was right I have added wrong IP address to my hosting Cpanel.
