sql node.js error 10061 - mysql

Question

I am trying to create my first database with node.js but I cant't connect to the server.It gives me error 1061.I am absolutely new in creating databases and I have no idea where is my mistake.Can someone help me?
Thank you!
Here is my code:
var mysql = require('mysql');
var con = mysql.createConnection({
host: "localhost",
user: "root",
password: "",
database: "mydb"
});
con.connect(function(err) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log("Connected!");
con.query("SELECT * FROM customers", function (err, result, fields) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(result);
});
});
const http = require('http');
var qs = require('querystring');
var url = require('url');
const server = http.createServer();
server.on('request', (request, response) => {
var url_parts = url.parse(request.url, true);
var query = url_parts.query;
console.log(query);
var body = '';
response.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
request.on('data', (chunk) => {
body += chunk;
}).on('end', () => {
var post = qs.parse(body);
console.log(post);
if(query.command == "register") {
con.query("INSERT INTO customers (name, email, password)
VALUES(?,?,?)", [post.name, post.email, post.password], function (err, result, fields) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(result);
});
}
response.statusCode = 200;
response.end();
});
});
server.listen(8080);
Here is the Console output:

This error means that node.js can't connect to your MySQL server.
Most likely your MySQL server not started at all.
