How to resolve the issue of unsuccessful connection establishment in Navicat?
If you encounter any issues while establishing a connection with Navicat, you can try the following solutions:
- To check if the database server is running smoothly: make sure the database server has been started and the network connection is working properly.
- Check the connection configuration of the database server: Make sure that the connection configuration information entered in Navicat, such as hostname, port number, username, and password, is correct.
- Check the firewall and network settings: If your database server is running in a restricted network environment, you may need to adjust the firewall or network settings to allow Navicat to establish connections.
- Check database user permissions: Make sure the database user you are using has sufficient permissions for remote connection. You can try using an administrator user with higher privileges to establish the connection, and then reconfigure the permissions for regular users.
- Check the network connection: If you are using a Wi-Fi connection, try switching to a wired connection or connecting to a different network to determine if the issue is related to the network connection.
- Update your Navicat version: If you are using an outdated version of Navicat, there may be some compatibility issues. Try upgrading to the latest version to see if it can resolve your problems.
If the methods above fail to solve your problem, we suggest consulting Navicat’s help documentation or contacting Navicat’s official customer service for further support and resolution.
