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.

i installed mysql server too in with workbench.help me
I am try to using MySQL Workbench but its showing error "Cannot connect to database".Neither it taking it localhost or my Endpoint of AWS RDS as DNS in host in workbench.
"I am using Xampp for mysql server running on port number 3306 "
Error :
Cannot connect to DataBase Server
Your connection attemp to failed for user 'root' from host to server at localhost:NULL;
can't open named pipe to host:pipe:MySQL (2)
Please:
1.Check that mysql is running on server localhost.
2.Check that mysql is running on port NULL (note 3306 is the default,but this can be changed)
3.Check the root has rights to connect to localhost from your address .
4.Make sure you are both providing a password if nedded and using the correct password for localhost connecting from the host address you are connecting from.
If you want to test the connection to MySql, Use Heidi (i recommend it). If it didn"t work, check if your DataBase server is running in port 3306 by taping:
netstat -atp tcp | grep -i "listen".
You can also change listenning port in /xampp/mysql/bin/my.ini:
my.ini:
Password = your_password
port = 3306 ---> 3307
socket = "/ xampp / mysql / mysql.sock"``
Looks like you have no port configured. Check your connection settings that you have a port set.
I have a java project which connects to a MySQL database. Earlier it was working fine, but I think I messed up some of the configuration settings when trying to connect not via localhost. After messing around for hours and not making any progress (including completely reinstalling MySQL onto my mac and pc ( I was trying to connect these) ) I have given up and now am thinking of using some other database software like Postgre. Will the same error come up since its to do with not being able to connect as the server is not running?
The error at the moment is:
Your connection attempt failed for user 'root' from your host to server at 127.0.0.1:3306:
Access denied for user 'root'#'localhost' (using password: YES)
Please:

Help would be much appreciated.
Thank you,

When I attempt to connect from Windows 7 using 32bit and 64bit mysql-connector-odbc-5.3.2 and the connectionstring:
Provider=MSDASQL;Driver={MySQL ODBC 5.3 Driver};Server=192.168.1.13;Port=3306;Database=mydb;Uid=root;Pwd=****;
I get
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
Likewise with version 5.2.6. After downgrading the provider to 5.1 I get:
[MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver]Can't connect to MySQL server on '192.168.1.13' (10060)
which is more encouraging as it has at least recognised the provider.
I have tried adding a firewall rule to allow outbound connections to port 3306. I've tried disabling my local firewall. I have checked that the server is listening on port 3306 and verified the IP address. (tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN) I have further verified that I can access the server and that MySQL is running.
When I attempted to connect using the IP address from an ssh terminal to the server itself:
mysql -u root -h 192.168.1.13 -D whiskeywheel -p
I am prompted for the password after which I get:
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on '192.168.1.13' (111)
I have added the host/user to the user table in the mysql database and restarted MySQL. I've granted 'ALL' on the database to the user at anyhost ('%') and I've explicitly added access to port 3306 to the ubuntu firewall:
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 3306 -j ACCEPT
I will of course restrict access prior to deployment but I need to be able to interact with the database in a meaningful form while I'm developing it. I'm happy to re install any of the various components and start again as this is early enough in the project but ideally I'd like to know what I've misconfigured or where I went wrong.
mysql server by default only bind to the loopback address on the sever (127.0.0.1). you have to edit the my.cnf file of the server and do a restart of the mysql server.
also note that specifying localhost is treated special by mysql server. it does not call 127.0.0.1 as one would expects.
