Hi sc2141, I just got the same error. Did you find a fix?

Hello sc2142 and Bobadilla! Welcome to BP forums and thanks for posting.

Assuming that the MySQL host is properly setup with Hosting24 and that your connection string is correct, I think the most probable cause of this error is a lack of permission. Usually, MySQL databases only allow access to the database from the same machine that the database is running on.

That is to say, I believe this error is happening because your database does not allow connection from remote hosts.

What kind of control panel does Hosting24 give you? There should be a setting somewhere about MySQL remote connections, where you should whitelist access from either:
1. Your machine's IP address
2. All IP Addresses (0.0.0.0)

Hope this helps and keep us updated on your progress!
