how to connect to the command line of mysql

Question

I have set up a new instance in Lightsail with Debian 11 LAMP stack, 
1. Connected PhpMyAdmin through a tunnelled PuTTY and uploaded my data which looks good.
2. Connected with FIleZilla and uploaded some php which works, and need to connect to the MySql with command line.

I have used mysql -u bitnami -p with password in the PuTTY command line and get ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'bitnami'@'localhost' (using password: YES).  
I have tried all the passwords I have used with this and am getting nowhere, not sure what i am missing.  Can anyone help please?

Answer

You need to provide a hostname in that command.

```
mysql --host ${HOST} --user test_dba --port 3306 -p
