Can't connect to mysql using python's mysql.connector - python

I'm using a Mac (OS 10.10.5), PyCharm, Python 3.5 and MySQL. MySQL has been working with PHP on the same machine. I'm trying to connect to it using Python and getting the error message:
enter code here2003: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost::3306' (8 nodename nor servname provided, or not known)
Can someone list the diagnostic steps so I can correct the problem? Thanks, Doug
Below is the connection code:
import mysql.connector
from mysql.connector import errorcode
try:
cnn = mysql.connector.connect(
host="localhost:", # your host, usually localhost
user="root", # your username
password="root", # your password
database="bb_cards") # name of the data base
print("It Works!!")
except mysql.connector.Error as e:
if e.errno == errorcode.ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR:
print("Something is wrong with username or Password")
elif e.errno == errorcode.ER_BAD_DB_ERROR:
print("Database Does not exist")
else:
print(e)

You have a colon where there shouldn't be one:
host="localhost:" # remove the : -> host="localhost"
127.0.0.1::3306 is not the same as 127.0.0.1:3306

There are somethings I make out from your code.
we can provide host="localhost" no semicolons. or we can provide a host/server value like 'host':'127.0.0.1:<port name>'
Check your port again to connect the database
We should always close the connection viz. cnn.close() when our task is complete.

Connect to a database located on phpmyadmin from python

I'm looking to connect to a database via python.
The database is on phpmyadmin.
I read the section "variable" on phpmyadmin and I saw that the hostname is "atexo-sourcing-prod-01.local-trust.com".
Unfortunately, when I try to connect with this python code and with the same login and password that I use to connect to phpmyadmnin:
try:
conn = mariadb.connect(
user="mylogin",
password="my_password",
host="atexo-sourcing-prod-01.local-trust.com",
port=3306,
database="atexo_prod_sourcing_db")
except mariadb.Error as e:
print(f"Error connecting to MariaDB Platform: {e}")
I have an error, saying
Can't connect to server on 'atexo-sourcing-prod-01.local-trust.com'
(10061)
(I think it's not a problem of hostname, because when I put a random name, I have an other error).
Any idea to fix this?

Connect to MySQL database using python

So I am having a super hard time connecting to a local database using the python mysql.connector module.
So I am trying to connect using the highlighted connection. I use the password abcdefghijkl to log into the SQL environment. I am trying to connect to a database named flight_school.
My python script looks like so.
import mysql.connector
mydb = mysql.connector.connect("localhost", "root", "abcdefghijkl", "flight_school")
print(mydb.is_connected())
This above code in the arguments in the following order i.e.
hostname = localhost,
user = 'root',
password = 'abcdefghijkl', and
database name = 'flight_school'.
It's just not working. I get the following error.
I would really appreciate some advice, please.
Please read always the official documentation
Your cooenction stirng has to have this form(if you do it this way=
mydb = mysql.connector.connect(
host="localhost",
user="root",
passwd="testpaaword",
database="testdb"
)
Check out SQL-Alchemy module, works wonders from my experience.
Please read always the official documentation: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-python/en/connector-python-connectargs.html
import mysql.connector
from mysql.connector import errorcode, MySQLConnection
try:
db_connection = MySQLConnection(user='root', password='', port='3306', database='your_database')
print("Database connection made!")
except mysql.connector.Error as error:
if error.errno == errorcode.ER_BAD_DB_ERROR:
print("Database doesn't exist")
elif error.errno == errorcode.ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR:
print("User name or password is wrong")
else:
print(error)
else:
db_connection.close()
cursor = db_connection.cursor()
sql = ("commands")
cursor.execute(sql)

Problem putting using %s in a MySQL command

I'm trying to automate (by using python scripting) the ability to create a MySQL role, but for some reason I am unable to put my string variable into mysql command. This is what I've got so far:
#!/usr/bin/python3
import mysql.connector
from mysql.connector import errorcode
# Open database connection
try:
serverHostName='localhost'
userName='root'
passwd='password'
databaseName='mysql'
roleName='reader'
cnx = mysql.connector.connect(
host=serverHostName,
database=databaseName,
user=userName,
password=passwd)
cursor=cnx.cursor(prepared=True)
dropRole="""DROP ROLE IF EXISTS %s """
print(dropRole, roleName)
#cursor.execute(dropRole, roleName)
#cnx.commit()
except mysql.connector.Error as err:
if err.errno == errorcode.ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR:
print("Something is wrong with your user name or password")
elif err.errno == errorcode.ER_BAD_DB_ERROR:
print("Database does not exist")
else:
print(err)
else:
cnx.close()
print("You have successfully disconnected from your MySQL database")
what comes out is the following:
DROP ROLE IF EXISTS %s reader
You have successfully disconnected from your MySQL database
If anyone can explain to me why %s and the reader is showing up in my print line that would be much appreciated.
You didn't call a formatting operator to subsitute roleName into the string, so it's just printing the format string. Use the % operator to perform formatting.
print(dropRole % roleName)

Can't connect to webserver mysql with Python, but it's works fine in Php

I'm trying to connect to my webserver MySQL (my domain MySQL server) with Python but I keep getting this error:
2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query
import mysql.connector
from mysql.connector import errorcode
try:
cnx = mysql.connector.connect(user='myuser', password='mypass',
host='myhost',
database='mydb',
connect_timeout=10000)
except mysql.connector.Error as err:
if err.errno == errorcode.ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR:
print("Something is wrong with your user name or password")
elif err.errno == errorcode.ER_BAD_DB_ERROR:
print("Database does not exist")
else:
print(err)
else:
cnx.close()
Result: 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query
Connecting to this mysql server works fine in PHP.
Also connnecting to localhost MySQL (XAMPP) server works with Python too.
Any idea why I keep getting this error when im trying to connect with Python to webserver MySQL database?
The issue has been fixed, it turns out the database hosting got bad settings, so for some reason they did not receive my calls. It has been fixed by switching to a new host.

MySQL Connector in Python

Trying to connect to my MySQL DB on my VPS. I'm getting the following error, when using the below code;
(I've stripped out my credentials - however I know they work, as I use them for my PHP dev as well.
CODE
import mysql.connector as mysql
from mysql.connector import errorcode
try:
conn = mysql.connect( user= %USER%
,password=%PW%
,host = %HOST%
,database = %DB%
)
except mysql.Error as err:
if err.errno == errorcode.ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR:
print("Something is wrong with your user name or password")
elif err.errno == errorcode.ER_BAD_DB_ERROR:
print("Database does not exists")
else:
print(err)
else:
conn.close()
ERROR MESSAGE
2003: Can't connect to MySQL server on '%HOST%:3306' (10060 A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond)
Connector That I'm using
http://cdn.mysql.com/Downloads/Connector-Python/mysql-connector-python-2.0.1-py3.4.msi
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Check the GRANT on your MySQL database. It might be that you haven't been GRANTed permission to connect from that host with the given username and password.
The MySQL error number is 2003. I usually find it helpful to do a Google search to see if others have had the problem:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/access-denied.html
Is there a firewall between the client machine and the database server? I would hope that port 3306 would be blocked by default. If that's true, you'll need to set up a firewall rule to allow access from the client IP to the database IP via port 3306.
