I'm using Airflow 1.10.10, I have triggered a DAG to run using the Air Flow UI, and I'm getting this error about MySql connection ( i see it in 'view log' )
ERROR - (2006, "Unknown MySQL server host 'http://nowapi1.cvxmgb2uxecn.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com/' (-3)")
Thanks!
This is great option to have.
But with current airflow UI before you add the connection you can check if the port is accessible to your airflow instance is the only option I see.
This can be done using
telnet <host> <port>
nc
I do see a AIRFLOW jira regarding this but its still open. May be take a look later.
You can check the connection option by clicking Admin in Airflow UI. You will find one connection option there. Once you will click on connection option, you will see all your connections there. You can click on the edit option of the individual to check the info.
