Hi there,
Please re-correct your M1’s database credentials again. And if your Magento2 server isn’t same server with Magento1, you must enable remote connection from M2’s server to M1’s MySQL server.

Hello there,
indeed our M1 shop is on a different server. than our M2 shop Any hint how to setup this remote connection?
The documentation did not provide detailed enough information for me as a non developer. I fear without a clear instruction I can not make this extension work and have to refund otherwise.
 
Best regards

Hi there,

do I need to config the my.cnf on the Magento 1 or Magento 2 installation?

You should contact to your Magento1’s hosting provider to get more help to enable remote connection for your MySQL database instance in Magento1’s server.
