I downloaded the MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE and can't connect to local host. I tried to make a connection and when I 'Test Connection' I get hit with an error message of 'Failed to Connect to MySQL at 127.0.0.1:3306 with user root' with 'Unable to connect to localhost' below it. I tried to find ‘MySQL’ in system preferences->services but it doesn’t come up. Someone suggested that means that it didn’t download properly but I don’t know why it didn’t download properly. I have tried to redownload it several times now and the connection issues keep happening. I am working on Windows. Someone suggested typing 'mysql -h localhost -P 3306 -u root -p' into the terminal. Do they mean the command prompt? Then I tried typing 'netstat -lnp | grep 3306' into the command prompt and it said 'grep' is not recognized as an internal or external command.
If anyone has any help I would really appreciated it. I have been lost for several days now and have no idea why this isn’t working.
Thanks
I would say that this might fix your problem,
try to uninstall all the previous installation like workbench or xampp or any other app that you might use for MySQL, using revo uninstaller or IOBIT , something like that.
Download xampp app from this link https://www.apachefriends.org/xampp-files/8.0.0/xampp-windows-x64-8.0.0-3-VS16-installer.exe and then install it,
it will show a warning but hit ok and next.. and leave it finishing installation,
allow its access and hit start on them booth and see if thet work , on apache and MySql,
then to test it properly go to web address on local host http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ (after running the xampp apace and MySQL services)
As you see there it looks that everything is working fine,
Now we start with workbench (close all services to make sure that
they wont cause any error, just stop booth 2 of them)
I would highly recommend you the community version, on this link https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/file/?id=499590 405MB file,
Click next,
There will be a warning about visual studio and python, but I guess it will be ok, you didn't mentioned that you are working with any of them
Click on execute and finish them installing successfully.
Now you hit next and create a password ex: localhost123#MYSQL
And hit execute,
Execute and finish
And you start the workbench, meanwhile start the services of xampp and start workbench, running xampp it gives me an error,
Go to task manager and kill this process as shown: then close and reopen xampp, then start services, check on localhost to ensure and open workbench again,
and check it
This is my first MySql install from the ground up.
I am using Windows Server 2016, trying to install MySql 8.0.15. I am doing this to try and use it with php 7.3.1.
The install has all the listed prerequisites.
When I get the config section of mysql insstaller, it breaks on the first response with an error of "Beginning configuration step: Writing configuration file
Invalid server template
Ended configuration step: Writing configuration file"
The system event log has one error, "The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{8D8F4F83-3594-4F07-8369-FC3C3CAE4919}
and APPID
{F72671A9-012C-4725-9D2F-2A4D32D65169}
to the user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM SID (S-1-5-18) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in the application container Unavailable SID (Unavailable). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool."
But I'm not sure this is even the right troubleshooting path to start down.
Can you assist with some guidance?
I had the same problem with the
mysql-installer-web-community.
The mysql-installer-community was working without a problem.
The bottom link is the none web installer which was working.
For me initially when I was not accepting the initial update mysql pop-up then installer was not working, but once I accepted it. Then it successfully worked for me.
I have been able to install after getting the same error.
I have changed the credentials for the sql root.
By default, host is set to something like %ALL_HOST%. I changed to localhost.
I ended up uninstalling all mysql 8 components that had already installed.
Then went back and got the mysql installer 5.7.25.0. I think I had some trouble after that, but it wasn't the same error. I finally ended up installing mysql 8.0.15 by itself and it worked. Then I went back and did the connectors. Next the workbench. Finally docs and samples. Doing them one at a time seemed to go better. I am now up and running.
Here's what I did to fix the issue
completely removed mySQL Server and Workbench installations.
uninstalled the mySQL web installer. Restarted my computer.
ran the mySQL web installer again (only installing mySQL Server)
downloaded the mySQL Workbench installer to install Workbench separately
I apologise.. I know this question has been asked many times before, but I've tried lots of suggestions, and simply can't find a solution.
The problem: I have a MySQL database running on a hosted server.
I have to use SSH to connect to it, and I have the relevant Public and Private Key files.
I specifically want to use the PC version of MySQL Workbench, to access this database, for running queries, checking data, etc.
If I run Sequel Pro on a Mac, it connects fine, and I can browse and query the database. No problems.
If I run the trial version of SQLyog on a PC, it also connects fine. No problems.
But if I try to connect use MySQL's own "MySQL Workbench" application, using exactly the same settings and SSH Private Key file, it refuses to connect, throwing the well-known error:
Can't connect to MySQL server on 127.0.0.1' (10061)
I find it frustrating, as, in SQL Workbench, I specified the "MySQL Hostname" to use, db01.mysql.vm.MyHostingServer.net, but Workbench seems to ignore it, and demand to connect to 127.0.0.1 instead.
(I have read that Workbench says it needs the Public key file, but actually means the Private key file... and I have tried with both. I've also tried with MySQL Workbench on a Mac, but that crashed all over the place, simply when I was typing in server names and passwords.. it was a mess !!)
The hosting service I've gone with gives me limited permissions for changing MySQL settings, and given that Sequel Pro and SQLyog can connect successfully, I don't want to start messing about and changing things randomly.
Any ideas...?
Maybe you are not allowed to start the service "MySQL 55". Set the login information of Service "MySQL 55" as local!
To see the list of aviable services in Windows 7:
Open a run box
Type services.msc and press return.
Find the service MySQL55
A right click of the MySQL55 Local Service shows Properties -> Log On
Even I had same problem, The reason was mysql service was not getting configured properly, when I installed it through 'MySQL installer'. Also it was not starting, when I tried to start the service manually.
So in my case it seemed be a Bug with the 'MySQL Installer', as editing the install path to a different one when the 'Developer default' was selected, the problem occurs.
Solution (Not exactly a solution):
Uninstalled the MySQL all products (completely)
Reinstalled, this time also I have selected 'Developer default', but didn't make any changes to the path or any thing. So the path was just 'C:\Program Files\MySQL' (the default one)
And just clicked Next Next...
Done, this time MySql was running fine.
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.
hope it will work for you as well.
Thanks!!!
I was having same issue, way i have resolved is:
opened the MySQL installer. i was having a Reconfigure link on MYSQL Server row.
Clicked on it, it does reinstalled MySQL Server.
after that opened MySQL Workbench, and it was working fine.
Try placing the host name (db01.mysql.vm.MyHostingServer.net) in your windows host (C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\host) file along with it's IP address and port number and see if that helps.
If you have installed WAMP on your machine, please make sure that it is running. Do not EXIT the WAMP from tray menu since it will stop the MySQL Server.
To connect to a new server, you click on home + add new connection. Put IP or webserver URL in new connection.
Just try to run the following command manually:
C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.6.17\bin\mysqld.exe --console
It worked for me :)
Ran into the exact same problem as OP and found that leaving the "MySQL Server Port" empty in the MySQL Workbench connection solves the issue.
I have tried all the method.
I will suggest you to reinstall it.
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.

I solved it! On a mac just go to spotlight search on the top right of the screen and type Mysql. Turn it on.
I recently installed MySQL 5 on Windows 2003 and tried configuring an instance. Everything worked fine until I got to "Applying Security settings", at which point it gave me the above error (Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)).
I do have a port 3306 exception in my firewall for 'MySQL Server'.
Got this error on Windows because my mysqld.exe wasn't running.
Ran "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin\mysqld" --install from the command line to add it to my services, ran services.msc (start -> run), found the MySQL service and started it.
Didn't have to worry about it from there on out.
To resolve this problem:
go to the task manager
select Services tab
find MySql service
Running
That's all.
You'll probably have to grant 'localhost' privileges to on the table to the user. See the 'GRANT' syntax documentation. Here's an example (from some C source).
"GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON %s.* TO '%s'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '%s'";
That's the most common access problem with MySQL.
Other than that, you might check that the user you have defined to create your instance has full privileges, else the user cannot grant privileges.
Also, make sure the mysql service is started.
Make sure you don't have a third party firewall or Internet security service turned on.
Beyond that, there's several pages of the MySQL forum devoted to this:
http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?11,9293,9609#msg-9609
Try reading that.
I had difficulty accessing MySQL while connecting via a localhost connection on the standard port 3306, which worked fine when I installed and configured it for prior classes I had taken in MySQL and Java. I was getting errors like "error 2003" and "Cannot connect to MySql server on localhost (10061)". I tried connecting from both MySQL Workbench (5.2.35 CE) and Netbeans (7.2). I am using Windows 7 64 bit professional.
I tried typing in services.msc in the start menu search box, which opened the services dialog box to show all the services installed in windows. I scrolled down to MySQL and started this service. Subsequent attempts to connect to MySQL from MySQL WorkBench and from the command prompt succeeded.
English:
press Windows + R
write "services.msc". Then press Enter
search for MySQL57 and right click
click on start the service
Français :
Appuyez sur la touche Windows + R
Écrire "services.msc" Puis appuyez sur Entrée
Recherchez MySQL57 et clic droit
Cliquez sur rédémarrer
press Windows key + R
write "services.msc" enter
search for "MYSQL56"
write click on it and start the service
Make sure that your windows host file (located at c://windows/system32/drivers/etc.host) has following line. If not, add it at the end
127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost
Sometimes mysql can not trigger Windows to force start host services if firewall blocks it, so start it manually
win+run>>services.msc, select the "MySQL_xx" where "xx" is the name you have assigned to MySQL host services during setup. Click on 'start' to start from hyperlink appeared on left side.
I tried Kuzhichamadam Inn's solution and found that a slight change needed to be made.
MYSQL57 was a network service. I had tried this repeatedly with no success. When I opened services.msc I found another service for localhost: MySQL. I started that one using the process below and it worked.
run > services.msc > rightclick MySQL > properties >start
I got this error when I ran out of space on my drive.
Go to Run type services.msc. Check whether or not MySQL services are running. If not, start it manually. Once it is started, type MySQL Show to test the service.
To connect locally to MySql, you do not have to setup a firewall with inbound rules. But, even if you already setup iptables to allow the TCP inbound port 3306 and grant the privilege to the user to access the db locally, you may have to setup the bind address in your my.cnf file, edit the default address there and put the server IP address that is running the MySql service.
Since I have struggled and found a slightly different answer here it is:
I recently switched the local (intranet) server at my new workplace. Installed a LAMP; Debian, Apache, MySql, PHP. The users at work connect the server by using the hostname, lets call it "intaserv". I set up everything, got it working but could not connect my MySql remotely whatever I did.
I found my answer after endless tries though. You can only have one bind-address and it cannot be hostname, in my case "intranet".
It has to be an IP-address in eg. "bind-address=192.168.0.50".
run > services.msc > rightclick MySQL57 > properties >set start type option to automatic
after restarting computer
At cmd
cd: C:\
C :\> cd "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\bin"
it will become
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\bin>
type mysql -u root -p
ie C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\bin> mysql -u root -p
Enter password: ****
That's all
It will result in
mysql>
Another possibility:
There are two ways the MySQL client can connect to the server: over TCP/IP, or using sockets. It's possible you have your MySQL server configured to support socket connections, but not network connections.
Nothing to do just "Reset to Default" your firewall setting it will start working.
I read many solutions but nothing worked properly, so at last I reset firewall settings which worked.
finally solved this.. try running mysql in xammp. The check box of mysql in xammp should be unclicked. then start it. after that you can open now mysql and it will now connect to the localhost
Edit your 'my-default.ini' file (by default it comes with commented properties)as below ie.
basedir=D:/D_Drive/mysql-5.6.20-win32
datadir=D:/D_Drive/mysql-5.6.20-win32/data
port=8888
There is very good article present that dictates commands to create user, browse tables etc ie.

I did not have Mysql server installed, that package was missing and I got it from this link https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/
Right click on My Computer
Click on Manage
Go to Services and Application
Select Services and find MySQL service
Right click on MySQL and select Start
