I've recently gotten into databases for a class I'm currently in, and I need a little bit of help. I've managed to create a database, and even populate a table with data which I was then able to grab from a node.js project I've made in Atom. Wonderful! When I went to shut it down, all seemed normal but now it won't restart. As in, when I'm in the homepage section of MySQL I double click the local instance I made(I can only assume this is opening the connection to the local instance where my database is stored) but it won't start up. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Here is an image of the error I'm getting. I can only assume it's because the actual server isn't on but I don't know how to turn it on.
Any help is much appreciated!
Thank you!
As according to the users ikiK, P.Salmon, and Y4glory the issue I was having was that I wasn't actually turning on the server. I was able to do so by going through my Window's Services application, finding the MySQL server and starting it there instead of trying to do so through the workbench.
Once again, thank you to those who commented as that was really helpful!!
I have tried every other way mentioned here and other related posts, but it did not solve my problem, the service just wont start, but the below approach with the mysql-installer did.
For this to work you need to have your installer which you have used earlier to install MySql.
Start your windows mysql installer. For me it was "mysql-installer-community-8.0.20.0"
Then remove/uninstall the SQL Server and remove all configurations
Manually delete the SQL Server folder from "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0."
Start your mysql installer again and install the SQL Server again
You can check now that the MySqL Server has started.
Hope it helps someone.

I am running Mac OS 10.10.2. I have recently been educating myself about php and SQL in order to create an online database application for my employer. However, I have been unable to load up my MySQL databases in phpMyAdmin. I have tried following some advice from this forum, but no answers seem to solve my issue.
I installed MySQLWorkbench (Ver. 6.2.4.12437) as well as XAMPP (Ver. 5.6.3-0), and was using phpMyAdmin to have a play around and better understand what I was getting myself into. I then found one of those follow-the-bouncing-ball type teaching websites which advised me to download and install the MySQL community server (Currently running Ver. 5.6.23)
As instructed, I was learning SQL commands through Terminal and built up some databases/tables this way. I decided I wanted to jump into phpMyAdmin where I felt it'd be easier to continue my work. At first XAMPP was unable to turn on the servers which I overcame by uninstalling and reinstalling. Then I was getting a #2002 error when trying to access phpMyAdmin. I tinkered with config files and put in details relating to my localhost MySQL server (Or at least I assume as much).
I was able to get back into phpMyAdmin finally, but my databases made through terminal are not there.
phpMyAdmin shows: cdcol (the example database), information_schema, mysql, performance_schema, phpmyadmin, and test.
If I open terminal and punch in 'mysql' then 'SHOW DATABASES;' it only lists: information_schema.
If I open terminal and punch in 'mysql' with username 'root' and my password, then 'SHOW DATABASES;' it lists: information_schema, mysql, performance_schema, my tutorial/learning database, and my business database. I dropped the test database from here. THESE are what I want to bring up in phpMyAdmin.
I can only guess that I haven't got it configured properly to access this last mysql server, but I can't determine where I am going wrong. If anyone can shed some light on this, that'd be greatly appreciated.
It appears as if you have two MySQL instances; one from the XAMPP and also the MySQL Community Server that you installed yourself.
The "M" of XAMPP is for MySQL, so yes usually it runs its own MySQL server instance. That's sort of the point of the packaged kit, so you don't have to worry about having any of your own applications installed. In theory it should be no problem to stop the XAMPP MySQL instance and instead use your other one, but may require tweaking some configuration files and is probably not supported. If you can make it work, I don't see a reason why it would be a problem, though.
My suggestion is to either use the complete XAMPP stack or roll your own installation rather than mix and match.
MySQL workbench was working properly till last login(yesterday). When I tried to open an existing connection(today), this error was popped up. I was trying to convert tables from MSSQL to MySQL yesterday.
Detailed error message
MySQL workbench has encountered a problem
Parameter is not valid
We are sorry for the inconvenience but an unexpected exception has been raised by one of the MySQL Workbench modules. In order to fix this issue we would kindly ask you to file a bug report. You can do that by pressing the [Report Bug] button below.
Please make sure to include a detailed description of your actions that lead to this problem.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to help us improve MySQL Workbench!
The MySQL Workbench Team
For future reference, I had the same problem out of the blue with Workbench on Windows 7 so I re-ran MySQL Workbench installer, selected Repair and everything went back to normal.
I guess some update messed up the install.
This is not about the normal login but migration in MySQL Workbench. This part uses separate logins to source and target servers. If your connection to the MS SQL server worked yesterday and you didn't change anything in MySQL Workbench then it is very likely something with your MS SQL server happened. So, someone needs to check if that server is still running properly and can be accessed from your machine.
Okay listen up. Go to your downloads where you had actually downloaded workbench setup right click on it, you will find an option called "Repair", click on it, follow all steps, open your workbench, open your connection now!(Mine is Windows 10)
Note : You can do it by re-installing workbench too! But Repairing the tool is more convenientPFA Image
I know the question I am about to ask is a very stupid once but I am new to MYSQL so please bear with me. Want I want to do is create a database on my local machine and also access/manipulate it from their. I thought MYSQL WB was the all in one tool to do this i.e it will also allow me to create a database and also make a MYSQL server from which to access it. But I came to know the Workbench is just a front end and you need to have a some kind of a seperate MYSQL server module for it to access.
The problem is I can't seem to find any link for a simple a server module on the MYSQL download site.
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/ .
It has one Cluster Server but I don't think this is what I am looking for. If anyone could provide a link to the MYSQL server module using which I could connect MYSQL Workbench on my local host, and the steps to connect them that would be great.
The one your looking for is named MySQL Community Edition. The current version is 5.6.14. Just select your platform (mac, linux or windows) and follow the installation guide.
If you wish to have php/mysql then you can download xampp. It includes all the necessary tools. Or if you wish to install it separately then follow this for Windows,

I am using sphinx to index my content. I used it in my development environment (xampp) and it worked fine. Now I took it to the server (same config file), and it is giving me trouble.
I have a VPS Windows 2008 server with Plesk panel. I am the administrator. the problem is that when i run the indexer tool, it tells me that it found 0 docs and indexing 0 docs. So it seems like it is working fine as far as accessing the database, but it just doesn't find any docs. Does anyone have any ideas, I spent a whole day playing with the configuration and database with no success.
Thanks.
Well maybe the database table that sphinx is trying to index is empty?
Either way would suggest adding debug command line switches when you run indexer. Eg --verbose, --print-queries etc. They will probably give you a better clue where the problem lies.
I installed MySQL server and everything worked fine in command line. I worked connecting MySQL to my ASP.NET application and there is no problem at all. But when I try to connect MySQL to PHP applications I am unable to connect. When I installed PHPMyAdmin I am getting error #2002 Connot log in to thie MySQL server
I browsed all the night for this error and none of Google's results helped me! :(
Anybody can you please tell me where the problem is at? I believe I must change my PHP.ini file settings in order to connect to MySQL. Anybody please help me.
There are a lot of things that can cause this type of issue. Did you make sure that you have added php-mysql drivers to your sever. Since you said your using ASP i will assume that you are using windows servers. Make sure that you also are allowing that user to connect via localhost or what ever ip the PHP is on.
In php there are to standered ways of connecting to a MySQL database.
php-mysql(is going to be depercated soon).
php-mysqli(OOP version of the php-mysql with lots of features).
With out one of these php will be unable to work with a MySQL database. I am not sure if phpmyadmin works with both drivers or just one of them It could be throwing a die("message") Just to let you know it is not working instead of throwing a more complex php error. You may want to see if you can incress error reporting.
You can check if your php installastion has the mysql driver by looking in your php.ini and also checking with.
phpinfo();
It is almost always about config. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=90133
