Hi all,
Sorry a basic question, setting up proxysql on a 3 node galera cluster.
i have configured 2 users as per docs
proxyadmin with 'proxyadmin'@'%' on the cluster.
i have confiured the proxysql to ocnnect to these server setting the hostgroup for all the servers same as 10
i am trying to connect from proxysql with the abov user name it is throwing error as 
mysql -uproxyadmin -p123 -P6033 --prompt='ProxySQLClient'
ProxySQL Error: Access denied for user 'monitor'@'127.0.0.1' (using password: YES)
where as the same user user when doing a remote connecting directlry with port 3306 it is working fine.
where have i gone wrong please do let me know

thanks in advance
arun

Hi Arun, 

Unfortunately there is so much wrong going on here.
For example:

1)
According to the error you reported, you are using "monitor" user, while according to your prompt you are using proxyadmin : there is clearly a copy/paste issue.

2)
According to your mysql prompt , you are not specifying any host, so according to your prompt it will try to connect to a Unix socket and not to TCP port 6033 : again, probably a copy/paste mistake.

3)
You are not giving evidence you configured the user in ProxySQL 

Point 3 will clarify if you configured ProxySQL correctly, but the first two points are an indicator that probably you are doing something wrong while copy/pasting the instructions
