I'm trying to connect my NodeJs application with a mysql database but its not connecting for some reason.
I did install the mysql npm like this (typed this in commandline):
npm install mysql
After I installed the mysql npm I made an index.js file and in that file I tried to make the connection with my database.
This is the code inside my index.js file to make a connection with mysql:
//Gebruik mysql npm module voor de mysql database
const mysql = require('mysql');
//Geef connectie details aan
var connection = mysql.createConnection({
host : 'localhost',
user : 'root',
port : '3306',
password : 'tombal10',
database : 'fys'
});
connection.connect((err) => {
//Als er geen error is print dan 'Database is geconnect!'
if(!err)
console.log('Database is geconnect!');
//Als er wel een error is print dan 'Database connectie niet gelukt!'
else
console.log('Database connectie niet gelukt! : '+ JSON.stringify(err, undefined,2));
});
Then I tried to run the code and see if the connection with mysql worked. I typed this in the command line:
node index.js
This is the error message I got in the command prompt :
error image
Does anyone know how I can fix this error and get a connection with my mysqldatabase in nodejs ?
Any kind of help is appreciated
