GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'joey'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION;

Remote Access

If you are getting "Connection refused" after setting up all the security groups and can't figure out why confirm that the bind address is 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1.

sudo nano /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf

Find the section labeled [mysqld] and confirm the settings are as follows.

bind-address            = 0.0.0.0
mysqlx-bind-address     = 127.0.0.1
