Can't deploy a project with MySQL database (Sequel Ace)

[lsodiogo]

Hi all,

I’m new as a back-end developer and still discovering all this world…

I did a back-end project in an academic context with a MySQL database (Sequel Ace) and me and some colleagues, that used the same, can’t deploy the project but other that used MongoDB was much easier to do the deploy and seems to be working.

Does anyone can help me on this matter?

Regards!

What are the errors you’re receiving on the project you can’t deploy?

Where is the MySQL instance running?

[lsodiogo]

Well, first of all, thanks for your response

I wasn’t able to host my MySQL database in any server, so basically it’s running on my machine.
I know I’ve should it but I’ve tried but I wasn’t able to finish with success.
So, in this case, render is giving me this: (screenshot attached)

Is MySQL’s port (3306) port forwarded through your router to your computer?

[lsodiogo]

Yes

Can you access your computer’s MySQL instance externally anywhere else? Perhaps by getting an SQL utility on your phone, shut off its wifi, and connect to your home address that way?
