Acess to mysql - unreacheable?

I am having an issue connecting to my website. Is it something that is not allowed in free pythonanywhere?

pymysql.err.OperationalError: (2003, "Can't connect to MySQL server on 'mysql.xxx.com.br' ([Errno 101] Network is unreachable)")
00:34 ~/vj $ ping xxx.com.br
PING xxx.com.br (191.6.213.128) 56(84) bytes of data.

Yes, free accounts have restricted internet access. If you want to use an external database, you'd need to upgrade your account. Or you can use MySQL db provided by PA, see: using MySQL.
