It’s connecting OK or it wouldn’t have gotten that far. That error is emitted during save if, during a transaction INSERT or UPDATE it fails to either find or INSERT the commodity. Check your database logs to see why and correct the problem if you can. If you can’t you’ll have to find a different solution. You do realize, though, that by using a remote database and then advertising your database URI you’ve invited the whole net to try to break your password and mess with your financial data.
