Hosting laravel app in aws elastic beanstalk with rds db instance

I have successfully completed deploying my application on a resilient beanstalk. But when I call the url it shows (I exported my table to an RDS DB instance)

ErrorException at line Connector.php 47: SQLSTATE [HY000] [2002] Connection timed out (view: /var/app/current/local/resources/views/themes/default1/client/cart.blade.php)

My database.php config:

'mysql' => [
        'driver'    => 'mysql',
        'host'      => 'rds.cvp31y7ebg1x.us-west-2.rds.amazonaws.com:3306',
        'database'  => 'rdsdb',
        'username'  =>'rdsuser',
        'password'  => '******',
        'charset'   => 'utf8',
        'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
        'prefix'    => '',
        'strict'    => false,
    ],

Please help me understand this issue.

Thank.

1) You can provide a port using the "port" -key in config:

'port' => env('DB_PORT', '3306'),


2) Check your RDS security groups or maybe you are using RDS inside the VPC:

3) Check the VPC security groups. Attach VPC security groups to your RDS instance and configure your IP / your account (bad practice) / your instance or scaling group in those VPC security groups. Remember, if you are using RDS inside a VPC, this is a VPC Security group important to RDS!
