By commenting out the bind-address in the MySQL configuration, it will bind to all interfaces.
sed -i "s/^bind-address/#bind-address/" /etc/mysql/my.cnf

the issue was for some reson "root" did not have access to remotely administer the db. I create a new account with full to all db instances and it worked.

Glad it works, although it doesn't make sense to me how it would - unless navicat tunnels connections over ssh or something similar.

the issue is the hosts. root only has local host, backstagej, and 127.0.0.1. I created a new account and assigned it a host of "any"

can you post the path?

go to webadmin, then mysql administration, then create a user account. you think specify what hosts the account can access from.

the 'backstage' mysql.user host will be removed from all lamp based appliances released from this point on.
