I mounted a new VirtualBox Machine with Vagrant, and inside that VM I installed Mysql Server. How can I connect to that server outside the vm? I already forward the port 3306 of the Vagrantfile , but when I try to connect to the mysql server, it`s resposts with the error: 'reading initial communication packet'
ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 0

Here are the steps that worked for me after logging into the box:
Locate MySQL configuration file:
$ mysql --help | grep -A 1 "Default options"
Default options are read from the following files in the given order: /etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
On Ubuntu 16, the path is typically /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf
Change configuration file for bind-address:
If it exists, change the value as follows. If it doesn't exist, add it anywhere in the [mysqld] section.
bind-address = 0.0.0.0
Save your changes to the configuration file and restart the MySQL service.
service mysql restart
Create / Grant access to database user:
Connect to the MySQL database as the root user and run the following SQL commands:
mysql> CREATE USER 'username'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mydb.* TO 'username'@'%';
Log in to your box with ssh [email protected] -p 2222
(password vagrant)
Then: sudo nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf
and comment out the following lines with #
#skip-external-locking
#bind-address
save it & exit
then: sudo service mysql restart
Then you can connect through SSH to your MySQL server.
This worked for me: Connect to MySQL in Vagrant
username: vagrant password: vagrant
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install build-essential zlib1g-dev
git-core sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev sudo aptitude install mysql-server
mysql-client
sudo nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf change: bind-address = 0.0.0.0
mysql -u root -p
use mysql GRANT ALL ON *.* to root@'33.33.33.1' IDENTIFIED BY
'jarvis'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; exit
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart

For anyone trying to do this using mysql workbench or sequel pro these are the inputs:
Mysql Host: 192.168.56.101 (or ip that you choose for it)
username: root (or mysql username u created)
password: **** (your mysql password)
database: optional
port: optional (unless you chose another port, defaults to 3306)
ssh host: 192.168.56.101 (or ip that you choose for this vm, like above)
ssh user: vagrant (vagrants default username)
ssh password: vagrant (vagrants default password)
ssh port: optional (unless you chose another)

I came across this issue recently. I used PuPHPet to generate a config.
To connect to MySQL through SSH, the "vagrant" password was not working for me, instead I had to authenticate through the SSH key file.
To connect with MySQL Workbench
Connection method
Standard TCP/IP over SSH
SSH
Hostname: 127.0.0.1:2222 (forwarded SSH port)
Username: vagrant
Password: (do not use)
SSH Key File: C:\vagrantpath\puphpet\files\dot\ssh\insecure_private_key
(Locate your insercure_private_key)
MySQL
Server Port: 3306
username: (root, or username)
password: (password)
Test the connection.
Well, since neither of the given replies helped me, I had to look more, and found solution in this article.
And the answer in a nutshell is the following:
Connecting to MySQL using MySQL Workbench
Connection Method: Standard TCP/IP over SSH
SSH Hostname: <Local VM IP Address (set in PuPHPet)>
SSH Username: vagrant (the default username)
SSH Password: vagrant (the default password)
MySQL Hostname: 127.0.0.1
MySQL Server Port: 3306
Username: root
Password: <MySQL Root Password (set in PuPHPet)>
Using given approach I was able to connect to mysql database in vagrant from host Ubuntu machine using MySQL Workbench and also using Valentina Studio.
