Django/Mysql/502 error.

I am having problems connecting to MySQL database with Django through Droplet.

In the settings.py, if I have this set up as my database:

DATABASES = { ‘default’: { ‘ENGINE’: ‘django.db.backends.sqlite3’, ‘NAME’: os.path.join(BASE_DIR, ‘db.sqlite3’), } }

and I load the website, it gives a Django error that it cannot find some table in the database. But that’s because I’m not using SQLite.

If I add in the MySQL settings: DATABASES = { ‘default’: { ‘ENGINE’: ‘django.db.backends.mysql’, ‘NAME’: ‘ueba’, ‘USER’: ‘root’, ‘PASSWORD’: ‘password’, ‘HOST’: ‘localhost’, ‘PORT’: ‘3306’, } }

It gives me the 502 Bad Gateway error.

It works fine if I run the server on localhost just with Django/MySQL, but started having problems when I tried migrating it to Droplet. I currently pull MySQL data off the workbench app.

If I need to give more detail, just let me know and any help is greatly appreciated!
