Connecting through SSH Tunnel

[rattlion]

Hey there. I'd love to help trouble shoot this issue if you like but I wasn't immediately sure where to start. Haven't developed for Gnome or in Vala yet but willing to pick it up.

I'm trying to connect to a database through an SSH tunnel but I seem to get a DNS error at first, could not translate host name. In this case the host name is not publically available and would make sense if I were trying to directly connect. But it is in fact available via the server I ssh to. To confirm I manually connected through the command line, and also with DBeaver and DataGrip.

If I dismiss the error and try again I get a different error, failed to bind.

I couldn't find where the app logs to so please let me know if there is more info I can pull to share.

Built from AUR.

Unable to Connect to dbname could not translate host name "hostname" to address: Name or service not known

Unable to Connect to dbname Failed to bind. Your Database Port may be wrong!

Passing G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all as an env var enables logging to stdout. Maybe showing non-sensitive db connection params can help too

This might be an issue of LibGDA which can't handle some specific setting of your remote server, or could be an issue of the AUR package, which I don't maintain directly. Hard to troubleshoot without having access to your SSH server and Database to look at your configuration.
