Connecting Node Red and MySQL docker containers

I have two seperate docker containers, one running Node Red and one running MySQL. I create a node in the node red container using the contrib-mssql-plus-box plugin for node red. I've got a table on the MySQL container with some data in it called TimeData.

I then link the Node Red node to the container IP address as on the default bridge network in docker, with relevant login details.

In the MSSQL node, I have the following code:

SELECT TOP 1 * FROM TimeData;

I try to write this to a normal debug node (see layout below). But, when I try this, my node red container crashes with the following error:

18 Nov 13:56:28 - [red] Uncaught Exception:
18 Nov 13:56:28 - RangeError [ERR_BUFFER_OUT_OF_BOUNDS]: Attempt to write outside buffer bounds
    at boundsError (internal/buffer.js:47:11)
    at Buffer.readUInt8 (internal/buffer.js:213:5)
    at Packet.isLast (/data/node_modules/tedious/lib/packet.js:112:29)

    at readableAddChunk (/data/node_modules/readable-stream/lib/_stream_readable.js:278:11)
    at ReadablePacketStream.Readable.push (/data/node_modules/readable-stream/lib/_stream_readable.js:245:10)

    at ReadablePacketStream._transform (/data/node_modules/tedious/lib/message-io.js:57:16)

I'm not sure why I'm getting an outside buffer bounds error here? Is it my MySQL query or my container setup that is causing this?

You appear to be using the wrong node, MySQL != MSSQL.

You are using the MS SQL node (For the Microsoft Database) to talk to MySQL. This just won't work.

You need to install a MySQL node e.g. https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-node-mysql
