I've installed the mysql community server, server is running, and i'm able to connect through command line using
mysql -u root -p -h 127.0.0.1 -P 3307
which is the community server. I've also installed wamp which has its mysql server running on port 3306, the command above also connects to that server again
wamp is running fine and i'm able to get into phpmyadmin just fine, but when i try connecting to either mysql server through localhost using workbench, i'm presented with an error "Failed to connect to MySQL at 127.0.0.1:3307 with user root
Unknown MySQL server host '127.0.0.1' (0)"
I've been searching online for hours now and i can't seem to find any solutions to this. The only problem i'm having is connecting through workbench.
Are there any settings for workbench that i might have to change in order to connect to the servers?
EDIT:
This is all on windows by the way. I've also reinstalled wamp, workbench, and mysql server multiple times

I have a MySQL server running on Windows 7 (technically on a virtual machine but I don't think that matters). I have configured everything and it seemed fine at first. I tried to connect to the server via command line and it worked. Then I tried to connect to it via Workbench and succeeded again. However, I can no longer connect to the server with command prompt ever since that. The client machine is in a different sub-network.
My command is like:
mysql -host HOST_IP -P PORT -uUSER -pPASSWORD
And it returns:
ERROR 2005 (HY000): Unknown MySQL server host 'ost' (0)
The problem is that while I can connect to the server via Workbench, the command line just won't work. It all happens after I connected with Workbench. Does it has anything to do with Workbench? Or is caused by other issues?
Using:
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
MySQL 5.7.17
MySQL Workbench 6.3
In MySQL Workbench I can connect to my local instance, create a new database and edit this database.
But, if i try to import an sql file I am getting the following error:
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't Connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (110)
It does not matter the size of the sql file - even a simple create table and one column with no data causes the same error.
But, If I use terminal:
mysql -u username -p database_name < file.sql
data imports fine, I can then use Workbench to edit the database no problem.
But, If I then try to export the database, I run into the same problem, but I can export via the terminal.
I am using the root user, with the correct password in each case.
Any pointers would be very gratefully received.. I am stumped!
thank you
You appear to be connecting to localhost so I would assume that mysqlworkbench is trying to lookup a domain socket in a wrong place.
Try to switch to a tcp/ip connection by explicitly setting 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/connecting.html#option_general_socket
For connections to localhost, MySQL programs attempt to connect to the
local server by using a Unix socket file. To ensure that the client
makes a TCP/IP connection to the local server, use --host or -h to
specify a host name value of 127.0.0.1, or the IP address or name of
the local server
I have a Centos 5.5 Server and needs to migrate to a new one with 6.6. I have about three websites, a third party application(service). I need to put all these to my new server and host the websites.
And In the new machine i am not able to connect to mysql, when i try to connect using
mysql -u root the below error is shown.
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
Please suggest how can i connect with mysql and the migration? I am new to this.
I have tried to change the password using skip grantables and again the result is same.
If you are using plesk 11 then try to login your mysql shell with the following command
mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`
I'm trying to connect to the mysql server on my mac using terminal. I've already got MAMP on my mac but now I have installed XAMPP. when I type this into my terminal
mysql -u root -p
it comes up with this message...
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
I'm wondering is it because of XAMPP? Any suggestions?
have you tried
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -p
(if the mysql server isn't running on your local box, substitute the IP address of the mysql server for 127.0.0.1)
I am using Fedora 18 and recently installed MySQL workbench.
I created a new connection in MySQL workbench, but when trying to open I get the following error:
Cannot Connect to Database Server
Your connection attempt failed for user 'root' from your host to server at 127.0.0.1:3306:
Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (111)
Please:
Check that mysql is running on server 127.0.0.1
Check that mysql is running on port 3306 (note: 3306 is the default, but this can be changed)
Check the root has rights to connect to 127.0.0.1 from your address (mysql rights define what clients can connect to the server and from which machines)
Make sure you are both providing a password if needed and using the correct password for 127.0.0.1 connecting from the host address you're connecting from
Any idea what the issue would be?
Fedora 18 is a Linux Based Operating System and it works on chmod 777. so there should be authentication problem. otherwise server 127.0.0.1 and host name , username same as we keep in windows. you need to set authentication.
