I have several droplets and use ServerPilot. Is it possible to access the database in one droplet from another when they are in the same VPC? I followed the VPC instructions and am able to ping the Private IPs between droplets, but it’s not letting me connect to a database in PHP.
My databases are created using ServerPilot. If this is a firewall issue it looks like I would neat a subscription with HeatShield for custom firewall rules, but I would prefer not to get another subscription.
I created a Managed Database and that works in multiple droplets, but I was wondering if this is possible without needing the Managed Database.
Thank you
