This has happened to me a few times. I always forget what I did to fix it. It just happened today so after I unplugged my head from my butt and remembered I decided I would post it to see if it might help you.
When you set up your port forwarding, were you certain that the port you opened was for the box you were hosting the database on? It isn't always xxx.xxx.1.1.
Also after a less than graceful shutdown and disordered restart your router might end up assigning a different internal IP to your host machine, and EOC will be trying to connect to your db but being directed to your cellphone, laptop, or in my case to my solar inverter's monitor.
