I am getting this error:
Failed to connect to MySQL: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known
Also I am not able to login in PHPMyAdmin
And I did not changed my any database configurations
What can I do now?
Can you try this?
Seems like there is a problem with name resolution for the database servers, as there is no record for almost any of them on InfinityFreeâs domain. It used to work before that because for name resolutions they used to use Byetâs DNS servers; can you try to use sql305.byetcluster.com
as host instead and see if it works?
For any others having this issue: replace 305
with the database server number.
Can you try the things listed in this article?

Hello
Not entirely sure if this is going to work, but please try the following:
Open the InfinityFree ClientArea (app.infinityfree.com )
Select the account
Select the âControl Panelâ button
Scroll down and choose âPHPMyAdminâ
Select the action button for the database you want to access

Yes, so you need to do this:
I can see the errors; probably the server needed to heat up on your side.

EDIT: If anyone else isâŚ
Replace 305
with your code (the xxx
from the sqlxxx.infinityfree.com
format).

Leaving this discussion public, but closing as an outage announcement has been made:
MySQL Unable To Connect / PHPMyAdmin Unable To Connect
Due to DNS Issues within the âinfinityfree.com â domain, MySQL domains are having trouble connecting to the database.
Additionally, an error is occurring in the client area code that is (probably) sending incorrect credentials to the PHPMyAdmin Application.
Which components are affected by this issue
Logging into PHPMyAdmin via the Client Area (dash.infinityfree.com )
Connecting to MySQL via a infinityfree.com domain (sql_xxx.infinityfree.âŚ
