I have installed mysql with homebrew two weeks ago and everything works fine until today.
I have tried to connect to mysql with the classic command mysql -uroot and the behaviour following this command is really random. Sometimes, I'll connect successfully and sometimes I'll get the following error message
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
When I say random, I mean that whenever it fails, I relaunch the command several times (~5 times) before it works.
Yet, I have no idea why:
the success of the operation is so random
what could have ignited such a behaviour (i.e why I am facing this issue only now)
I don't think you did enough research regarding this error relating to homebrew since there's so many resources/solutions available regarding this error.
You can try to run brew services restart mysql or brew services start mysql and also take a look at the homebrew-services page

I am using MySQL workbench to connect to my local server. Everything was running fine and suddenly I jumped in a connection refused errors. I tried restarting the server again and again. Clearing temp files and also restarted my machine. I found this post from which I tried a couple of things like net stop and stopping the process from the services list but in the services list it shows as below:
I waited like for 30 mins but still, the service is not stopped.
Also, below is the screenshot for MySQL workbench when I try to start the server:
Is there anything specific which I need to do in order to resolve this error:
So, I resolved my own problem in this way. I referred the documentation for this particular error and for my error which is of 2003 type it said that look for mysqld.exe process in task manager and if you don't find any then start the server. But, in my case I found 2 mysqld.exe processes running. So, I killed those processes and restarted the server. It worked!!
Might help someone someday :)
I can't get my MySQL Sever to start. It had been running fine for a month or so since the install, but after a reboot yesterday, it will not start. I have tried a number of recommendations from other posts here, but no luck.
This install worked fine until the reboot. According to Activity Monitor I do have one mysqld process running.
I get this error from:
mysql -u root
"ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)"
I get this error when running:
sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server start
"ERROR! The server quit without updating PID file (/usr/local/mysql/data/laptop.pid)."
Also the MySQL prerPane shows the Server Status stopped. Clicking the "Start MySQL Server" brings the spinning ball and doesn't start the server.
I don't want to uninstall and reinstall.
I'm running 10.9.6 OSX and what seems to be mysql-5.6.22-osx10.8-x86_64. (even though I also have a directory for mysql-5.7.10-osx10.9-x86_64 in my /usr/local/ directory). My install is from the Pkg file from the MySQL website.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
Card-carrying OS/X user here . . .
Start by firing up the Console utility and using it to examine the logs in /var/log/apache2. (Use File..Open.. within the utility.)
I'm a little bit uncomfortable about your actual boots-on-the-ground situation because you indicate that you have installed a version that is different from the one that Apple provides. (How did it work, before?) Apple's utilities can only be expected to know about Apple's expected tools.
(Incidentally, the latest OS/X, "El Capitan," is running 5.7.11 as "the official, Apple-installed version.")
I know this question has been asked on here before, but it seems like I've tried everything suggested in this answer and this answer, and still no luck. I'm trying to use MySQL Workbench 6.3 on a Windows 10 client, connecting to a Linux MySQL server hosted by GoDaddy/cPanel.
I can connect to the MySQL server with no problems, and usually I have time to run a query or two. Then, within a minute of inactivity between Workbench and the server, I'll run into Error 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query. This even happens when running the exact same query, back to back about a minute apart, as shown here (even when the original query is quick; only 0.03 seconds to run):
The same problem persists when I run select sleep(60) immediately upon connecting to the MySQL Server; the connection is usually lost between 30-40 seconds into the execution of the query:
I've checked the MySQL docs, but with no luck. I don't think the problem can be related to packet size, as others have suggested (since the same query will work and then fail later), and my Workbench timeout settings look okay:
Anyone have any idea? The only other thing I can think of is maybe the wait_timeout variable listed in the MySQL docs needs to be increased too, but I guess that would be somewhere on the server side (some have mention my.ini) and I can't find where any MySQL Server files live in the cPanel hosting admin interface. There's a MySQL online client provided through cPanel (phpMyAdmin I think), but it's not nearly as robust and is becoming cumbersome to use. Any help would be appreciated!
I was having the same problem, using MySQL Workbench 6.3.6 on Win10 to connect to a MySQL server on a shared hosting system (Arvixe).
In addition to to the problem described by the OP (lost connection to server), I was also getting an error when attempting to import data from a prior export (similar to what is described here):
Unhandled exception: Error querying security information: Error executing 'SELECT * FROM mysql.user WHERE user = '[username]' and Host = '[host]' ORDER BY User, Host' SELECT command denied to user '[username]'#'[host]' for table 'user' SQL Error: 1142
Apparently, a bug was introduced in MySQL Workbench 6.3.5 (bug report). From the bug report:
It appears the problem arise if connecting with an user with no privileges on the mysql schema.
In other words: users connecting to a shared hosting system.
The proposed solution is to uninstall MySQL Workbench 6.3.6, and install 6.3.4 instead. (6.3.4 can be found in the archives). This solution worked for me.
after battling my way through every error message to try and get phpmyadmin running I am finally stumped by the last message. #2003 - The server is not responding. I think I know that its a problem between phpmyadmin and my installation of MySQL but I just cant find the hook.
I have already set the socket in the config.inc.php. I don't care if it works remotely i just need it to run locally for now. MySQL client connects just fine. I can do stuff from the command line so I know MySQL is configured and running. running typical LAMP stack CentOS 7 and mariadb. MySQL port is 3306
socket=/var/lib/MySQL/MySQL.sock (the stackoverflow web form keeps changing the case of MySQL so I am aware of the case sensitivity)
the main login page comes up fine but gives the 2003 error after typing in password. I know the correct password and I am typing it in correctly.
any help appreciated.
I'm running into a little trouble with MySQL Workbench.
This is the situation, I'm developing a database to query it remotely from Android devices. This is the first time I use MySQL Workbench, so I've followed this tutorial:
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/databases/visual-database-creation-with-mysql-workbench/
I have no problem creating the EER diagram and generating the SQL script. The problem comes when I try to connect to a MySQL server. I get this error:
"Failed to Connect to MySQL at 127.0.0.1:3306 with user root. Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 61"
http://img101.imageshack.us/i/capturadepantalla201104i.png/ (if the link stops working tell me)
I've also tried using the Local Socket/Pipe connection method with the MAMP Socket in '/Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock', but it gives the same error. And I've also tried using MAMP port 8889 but still nothing.
So anyone knows how to fix it? And another question, can I connect from my Android device to my laptop(where the database is placed) without using MAMP? MySQL needs MAMP to serve queries? And the last thing, am I going into the right way? Or should I do it other way?
Thanks for reading.
I had the same issue, but part of your question is what fixed it for me:
Set connection = Local Socket/Pipe
Set socket path = "/Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock" (for me - I got the path from my MySQL log upon initialisation)
Running: MBP, OSX 10.8.3 (Mountain Lion), MAMP Pro
Can't really fathom any further what your issue may be, but perhaps double check your DB is properly initialised. But, perhaps this helps someone else :)
I typed: sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server start
into the terminal and it started the MySQL server successfully and I was able to connect to MYSQL workbench.
You need to sure that Mysql process is running in your system. not sure in MAC but in windows it'called mysqld.exe
well take a look
http://lists.mysql.com/mysql/124371
Most commonly happens when database/server is not running. You need to check your server, or restart it. You can do so if you have mysql workbench under server administration. Check your manual for restarting or starting the server.
On osx 10.6 using mamp pro I solved this by allowing network access in the MySQL tab from the home window. Hope it saves someone the pain too
When trying to use the MySQL Workbench and connect through an SSH tunnel, you will get this error when your SSH connection does not complete successfully (e.g. improper host, password, key file, etc)
A good way to trouble shoot this is to separately test the the ssh connection from the machine you are trying to connect from and establish that you can do so successfully.
Try closing MySQL and running it as the admin. This worked for me.
After making above improvement such as checking if mysql service is running or not, you just need to give a small password while creating connection, it is ' ' or 1 time press on space-bar in case of GUI or workbench.
After which you just need to validate your machine with server (validated HOST).
For that purpose click on 'New Server Instance' and it will configure server/HOST on your behalf itself.
I have done this successfully just a few couple of minutes ago. My workbench software is able to show all pre-installed databases etc now.
Thanks!!!
I solved it! On a mac just go to spotlight search on the top right of the screen and type Mysql. Turn it on.
