Description
Hi, I'm having issues connecting to and RDS using token authentication
The error reported by the server was: SQLSTATE[HY000] [1045] Access denied for user 'iam_user'@'xx.xxxx.xx.xxx' (using password: YES)
So far my investigation down to:
- Connect by using user and password (no the generated RDS token ) - works
- Connect by using user and RDS token - does not works
- Run a test using php mysqli instead PDO with (user and RDS token) - works
Example of token generated:
myDatabase-dev-cluster.cluster-cwujoxa2wlgn.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com:3306/?Action=connect&DBUser=iam_user&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=AKLIOLRyTos5FYBGXRKLA%2F20200314%2Fus-east-1%2Frds-db%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20200314T031933Z&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Expires=900&X-Amz-Signature=a7373b21f52361addef02848382yg1232c538c730f1273d35fe84af947a12d2
I am wondering if a PDO issue and if is possible to use RDS Token with datatable somehow
