Cannot connect to MySQL at origin host

Hi,

I had to move my nameserver from godaddy to cloudflare in order to facilitate a more cosmetically appealing url on recommendation from a 3rd party SAAS provider. Since then, I cannot connect to databases on the origin server via third party apps like MySQL Workbench etc. Any help appreciated

Regards,
Dion

If that third party app is on the same server, configure it to use ‘localhost’ or 127.0.0.1

If it’s external, that makes me cringe due to security, but you’d have to configure it to use the origin IP address of that server.

Thanks. Seemed to work. The third party app is MySQL Workbench
