# Troubleshoot common problems with the Grafana MySQL data source plugin
|
|
|
|
This page lists common issues you might experience when setting up the Grafana MySQL data source plugin.
|
|
|
|
### My data source connection fails when using the Grafana MySQL data source plugin
|
|
|
|
- Check if the MySQL server is up and running.
|
|
- Make sure that your firewall is open for MySQL server (default port is `3306`).
|
|
- Ensure that you have the correct permissions to access the MySQL server and also have permission to access the database.
|
|
- If the error persists, create a new user for the Grafana MySQL data source plugin with correct permissions and try to connect with it.
|
|
|
|
### What should I do if I see "An unexpected error happened" or "Could not connect to MySQL" after trying all of the above?
|
|
|
|
- Check the Grafana logs for more details about the error.
|
|
- For Grafana Cloud customers, contact support.
