I have just updated to Navicat Essentials 11 on Mac. I'm using Zend server and now the old settings don't work:
General tab:
Host name: localhost
Port: 3036 (tried also with 3306)
And under advanced tab:
Use socket file: /usr/local/zend/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock
I get an error:
Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/usr/local/zend/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock' (1)
I copied mysql.sock file to /tmp and tried with with default socket settings:
Use socket file: /tmp/mysql.sock
I also got an error
Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
Facts
can't connect with Navicat Essentials 11
mysql server is running
username and password are correct
socket file worked in previous version
Thank you for your help.
I'ma answering my own question:
I made a http tunnel file (Navicat -> Connection Properties -> Save Tunnel script as...) and copied in on the root of local server. Now I'm connectig via http tunnel:
http://localhost/ntunnel_mysql.php
and everything seems to work fine.
I had an error "protocol mismatch" when trying to connect at first time. Full restart of computer solved this problem too (?).

I installed wampserver on my xp machine month ago.. Now when I try to connect to mysql via phpmyadmin or mysql console I get the error :
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost'
(10061)
Wamp icon in the tray is green meaning it's running ok.. I checked for mysql service and it's running and using the port 3306 .. I turned off the firewall.. I tried everything and it's not working.. I eventually uninstalled wamp totally and removed all its files and re-installed it again and same error.. When I try to telnet localhost 3306 it doesn't connect and I get the error :
Could not open connection to the host on port 3306: connect failed
I searched the web for hours, but didn't find any working solution. It seems that many people are having the same problem and most of them didn't find the solution.
Ok .. searching the internet for more several hours I've found one little clue that actually fixed my problem.
When I type netstat -a I get a list of active ports including 3306 (the one mysql uses). The Foreign Address column for some ports is 0.0.0.0.0 but for 3306 is [::]:0. I'm not a network guy but it turned out that it means it's a IPv6 port and it should be IPv4.
Adding the following line in the file my.ini under [mysqld] and restarting the service solved the problem.
bind-address=127.0.0.1
Note
My wamp version is 2.4 and mysql version is 5.6.12 running under win XP.
my.ini file for me is located at c:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.6.12.
Hope this helps who suffered my pain.
In my.ini there is - for example -the entry
# Secure File Priv.
secure-file-priv="C:/ProgramData/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.7/Uploads"
If this path is not (further) existing, mysql cannot be started.
You have then to put an existing path.
I also did some research on my side I reconfigure the sql parameters then in the type and networking section you have to uncheck the open windows button Firewall ports for network access then you have to press next until closing without anything modify other
Every time I try to connect to my mySQL on mysql workbench, it gives me this error message saying:
Your connection attempted failed for user 'root' from your host to server at http:x.x.x.x:3306: Cannot open SSH Tunnel:Error connecting SSH tunnel:Error Connecting to SSH server Error 11004 get addrinfo failed
I think you could get solution here: http://quintagroup.com/services/support/tutorials/mysql-linux
or follow this steps:
Open putty and accept the certificate of the server
hostname should be localhost ( in order to use local socket and not http conection)
local port should be something like 33010 not 3306
local port is the conection back port used by the plink and has nothing to do with mysql ports
New to connecting to databases and have no clue to where to begin to troubleshoot -
I am currently using HeidiSQL to connect to an external Mysql Database Server hosted on the Amazon Web Service - EC2.
I am able to access the database using HeidiSQL with the settings:
MySQL (SSH tunnel)
Hostname/ip: 127.0.0.1
user: (user)
password: (pw)
port 3306
in SSH tunnel tab:
plink.exe location is set to putty.exe
sshhost + port: (my host ip) port 22
private key file: (is set)
local port: 3307
Using this configuration I AM able to log into my database.
My problem is when I am trying to do it using my own putty commands using the port forwarding:
In Putty:
I set SSH>tunnels - source port: 3307, destination (my host ip):3306
Local and Auto.
I connect using my passwords and hostip
Back to HeidiSQL, I put my settings to:
MYSL (TCP/IP)
hostname: localhost
user: (user)
password(pw)
port 3307
and try to connect. I get the following error:
SL ERROR (2013): Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 0
From what I have read, this means my ssh tunnel is working but something else is wrong. I am now at a loss on why this doesn't work. Am i not setting something else up properly? Firewalling myself? My ultimate goal is to hook up another application to communicate with the database using ODBC orJDBC using the same port forwarding idea. Are there logs to check somewhere?
You must set
AllowTcpForwarding yes
PermitTunnel yes
in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
It seem's like your're trying to do this:
http://realprogrammers.com/how_to/set_up_an_ssh_tunnel_with_putty.html
It should work. I assume the ssh server and mysql server are running on the remote machine.
In Putty: I set SSH>tunnels - source port: 3307, destination (my host ip):3306 Local and Auto. I connect using my passwords and hostip
It should be: set SSH>tunnels - source port: 3307, destination 127.0.0.1:3306 Local and Auto.
heidisql: MYSL (TCP/IP) hostname: localhost user: (user) password(pw) port 3307
Notice that if you have a MySQL service running on your local machine, on the port your trying to listen (3307 ) you'll get a 2013 error, even if the local service is down! In that case, use any arbitrary unused port.
Also, if the remote mysql server has the user table (mysql database) restricted to certain hosts this won't work. Unless you find out how the server recognize himself (computer name) and add him on the user table or simply you use the '%' wildcard.
Follow below steps it solved my issue while connecting to Live server:
Find your IP (Google - what is my ip).
Go to C-Panel of your Live Server.
Go to Remote MySQL in C-Panel.
Add IP address that you got from Step 1 and save it.
Now try to connect through Heidi SQL.
Please let me know if it helped.
I have mysql installed several months ago. However I do remember using mysql workbench successfully at one point of time. Today I try launching it and get following error
Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 61
open /etc/mysql/my.cnf in a text editor and try changing:
bind-address = 127.0.0.1
to
#bind-address = 127.0.0.1
and then restart MySQL.
Try using the connection method: Local Socket/Pipe.
If you are 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 succesfully.
I came across the same problem.I fix this below:
3306 port may be occupied by other process, so mysql change the port to 3307(or nearly other port 3308...).So when you connect,change the port to 3307 and try
once i try to connect to mysql on phpmyadmin in ubuntu i got this error
2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)
but with mysql query browser i connect with out any error and it works
why phpmyadmin does not connect?
The command line client uses a unix domain socket while PHPmsyqladmin uses a network socket. You'll need to enable the network socket in the mysql config, most likely.
EDIT:
You can read about some of the troubleshooting (and windows) side of this: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/can-not-connect-to-server.html
