My MySQL database server is only accessible from localhost. I can connect to the server with SFTP to transfer files. DBeaver has an integrated SSH tunnel option, but it doesn’t work here. It immediately says 0 bytes were received instead of something.

I assume that it’s because the user is not allowed to connect with SSH to open a shell. Can I tell DBeaver to open an SFTP session instead and use the tunnel there? I haven’t found any information in the application or the web.

My DBeaver version is the latest 24.1 on Windows 11.
