Mysql error 10061 on local network - mysql

I'm tryig to connect to a local server his databases (located at 192.168.0.198),
but I'm getting the 10061 error.
When I try connecting true putty (then just an normal mysql login) it gives me no problems.
A mincraft plugin uses the following command to login to the database: mysql://localhost:3306/DB_NAME no problems there.
But when I try it with mysql workbench, and cmd. It refuses to work.
Anyone got any idea/solution how I could fix this?
grt kiwi

i had the exact same problem with the exact error message.
after reading #ruakh's comment i checked my.cnf and I noticed that the mysql server is bind to 127.0.0.1 ip address which is a loopback that can be reached only locally.
when i changed it to bind to the regular ip address (not loop) it resolved the issue. i could connect properly. you should try that ! :)
good luck

I had the same problem. Changed the key type from ppk to pem and all worked fine.

phpmyadmin (wamp) not working anymore

I've played a little with php and data bases a few weeks ago and it worked perfectly. Now, when I tested the same thing again, I realized that it is not runnable anymore. More exactly, when I have to access the data base, I get the following type of notice:
Warning: mysqli_connect() [function.mysqli-connect]: [2002] A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not (trying to connect via tcp://localhost:3306) in E:\wamp\www\test\login.php on line 18
When I try to open http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ I get a blank screen
Please give me the possible explanations
You probably have another application using port 3306, another MySQL running perhaps?
The Possible explanation is
i suspect you have installed and uninstalled wamp? in that case you need to check you driver/etc/.hosts file under system32 ("Google it for exact path") :) and you have to make sure there exist only one value for
127.0.0.1 localhost
As it said above you need to check your running port has already used by another instance by checking
netstat -a and see if 3306 is Listening
Check on windows services that MySQL ,Apache are running or able to run automatically or manually from the service
suggest uninstall properly ==> delete all inside the wamp folder except www --takecare

mysql error 2005 - Unknown MySQL server host 'localhost'(11001)

I was using mysql 5.6.11,it usually turned down and show me this:
2005 - Unknown MySQL server host 'localhost'(11001).
Currently my resolution is to turn off the network,than it return to normal.I had searched a lot,but no answer is revalent to it.So,does anyone knows the reason?
ERROR 2005 (HY000): Unknown MySQL server host 'localhost' (0)
modify list of host names for your system:
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
Make sure that you have the following entry:
127.0.0.1 localhost
In my case that entry was 0.0.0.0 localhost which caussed all problem
(you may need to change modify permission to modify this file)
This performs DNS resolution of host “localhost” to the IP address 127.0.0.1.
I have passed through that error today and did everything described above but didn't work for me. So I decided to view the core problem and logged onto the MySQL root folder in Windows 7 and did this solution:
Go to folder:
C:\AppServ\MySQL
Right click and Run as Administrator these files:
mysql_servicefix.bat
mysql_serviceinstall.bat
mysql_servicestart.bat
Then close the entire explorer window and reopen it or clear cache then login to phpMyAdmin again.
The case is like :
mysql connects will localhost when network is not up.
mysql cannot connect when network is up.
You can try the following steps to diagnose and resolve the issue (my guess is that some other service is blocking port on which mysql is hosted):
Disconnect the network.
Stop mysql service (if windows, try from services.msc window)
Connect to network.
Try to start the mysql and see if it starts correctly.
Check for system logs anyways to be sure that there is no error in starting mysql service.
If all goes well try connecting.
If fails, try to do a telnet localhost 3306 and see what output it shows.
Try changing the port on which mysql is hosted, default 3306, you can change to some other port which is ununsed.
This should ideally resolve the issue you are facing.
Follow these steps to fix this error
Use \connect root#127.0.0.1 instead of \connect root#localhost
if it doesn't work then go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts and check the IP address attached to host name.
use that IP, so it will be.
\connect root#the_ip_address_you_found

VB.net - Connect to Database

I got mysql database in the phpmyadmin, and i try to connect to the database from my application.
My connection string is:
Server=12.919.18.12;Port=3306;Database=hbd;Uid=hb;Pwd=123;
An exception occurs:
"Unable to connect to any of the specified MySQL hosts."
Do I need to install mysql or something?
(I just imported MySql.Data.dll and tryied it. Is there anything I have forgotten? I checked the ip pinging my website).
Connection strings for MySQL
is pretty helpful in terms of connection strings. Your connection
string seems to be invalid.
You may check mysql server is working or not and you can add port number of mysql in connection string like this
"Server=myServerAddress;Port=1234;Database=myDataBase;Uid=myUsername;Pwd=myPassword;"
Other reason MySql might be configured to listen to only the local host.
Follow the following links for more information:
Enabling MySQL Remote Access - MySQL connection only works from local machine
Unable to connect to any of the specified MySQL hosts.
IP is invalid 12.919.18.12
Server=12.919.18.12;Port=3306;Database=hbd;Uid=hb;Pwd=123;
IP block is < 256
If the datababase is local, try localhost or 127.0.0.1 as the IP address.
Is the server on your network? If so, the IP is invalid. If I were you, I'd try to check the IP with the person who gave it to you.
the connection string is correct but as ive read a lot of forums they all have the same problems as you do. my solution is that if your trying to create a network base system on a LAN type network you should use XAMPP or WAMPP but i prefer xampp and double check if your accounts or users have an Admin or any other user name for your connection and then see if they have granted all the privileges and with password of course.
Here is the ff instructions:
Open Xammp
Then open a web browser then open 127.0.0.1 or localhost.
click phpmyadmin then at the top click privileges.
add user and make it sure allow all privileges and check all access.
then connect again using the same connection string with the proper user and password.
This issue is RESOLVED :)
try to put the PORT in the end like :
"Server=12.919.18.12;Database=hbd;Uid=hb;Pwd=123;Port:3306;"

Failed to connect to MySQL at 127.0.0.1 in MySQL Workbench. System error 61

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.
Thanks!!!
I solved it! On a mac just go to spotlight search on the top right of the screen and type Mysql. Turn it on.

Connecting to MySQL using zend

I've set up a virtual host on my local machine myhost.com, have installed zend there and am now trying to connect to the MySQLdatabase. I get the following error message:
Message: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2003] Can't connect to MySQL server on ''myhost.com'' (10060)
All the tips I've found via google haven't helped. I use kaspersky antivirus and have added port 3306 to the allowed list for MySQL and Apache. I've also pinged myhost.com:3306 and get a response (with ip address 67.63.50.51), though localhost:3306 and 127.0.0.1:3306 aren't found. I've checked that other apps can still access MySQL if the virtual host is pointed at them instead and my non zend apps do work.
I guess I have to do something further to the port, or maybe force the app to use a different port, but am not sure how to do either.
Any help appreciated.
10060 is just the error number. MySQL's default port is 3306. Try the same things you already tried, but using that correct port.
The problem was a simple one in the end.
The tutorial I'm working through had quotation marks around its db connection details, and it turns out I needed to leave these out.
