PyMySQL can't connect to MySQL on localhost

Question

I\'m trying to connect to MySQL on localhost using PyMySQL:

import pymysql
conn = pymysql.connect(db=\'base\', user=\'         


        

Answer 1

I met the same question and my solution is as follows:

1. Run ssh -fN -L 3307:mysql_host:3306 ssh_user@ssh_host in my terminal.
2. Then input your ssh password
3. conn = pymysql.connect(db='base', user='root', passwd='pwd', host='localhost')

This error occurs because database does not support link directly.
