Hi Ma, regarding your question about SQLite vs MySQL - I didn't choose SQLite on purpose. I actually tried to use the MySQL database you provided months ago but couldn't connect.

When I first got the database details:
- Database: laravel_jboy_latest
- Username: laravel_root
- Password: Jboyholdings
- Host: stunning-turquoise-anteater.109-123-240-143.cpanel.site

I got connection errors and sent you that message about whitelisting the server IP. Since MySQL wasn't reachable, I switched to SQLite temporarily just to continue development.

I just tested the MySQL connection again and still getting the same errors:
❌ Port 3306 closed/blocked on the server
❌ Connection timeout to the MySQL host
❌ Even localhost MySQL connection refused

The SQLite in my .env is just a workaround because the MySQL database you provided has been unreachable since I started this project. I need DevOps to fix the MySQL connectivity so I can switch back to the proper database as intended.

I want to use MySQL as specified, but I can't connect to it from the server.
