I want to connect to a MySQL server via MySQL workbench. So I edited /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf and set bind-address = 0.0.0.0. Also, I made sure that skip-networking is in none of the cnf-files. In ufw I allowed mysql/tcp Am I missing anything? Every time I test the connection I get the error Host 'Ip.of.workbench-running.devices' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL-Server.

                    You have checked if your vps were accepting connection from remote host in mysql/tcp port. Of course after change bind-address you restarted mysql server? – Thiago Da Anunciação Jun 26 '20 at 21:10
