WinMySQLAdmin 1.4
 

Hey fellas, im helping my buddy run a server and I need some assistance. My WinMySQLAdmin isn't working, I try to log into MySQL in MsDos and I get this error...

I have tried a few things, any ideas? I did use search by the way, and I couldnt find anything that helped me, I found 2003 error and 10061 errors, but they were on a different part than what im on... I'v had this working before, I dont know why it decided to do this... makes no sense.. /sigh

Also, I uninstalled mysql and tried again, deleted My.ini and the problem is still persisting....

Unless you installed it differently it should look like this

WinMySqlAdmin is located under mysql\bin. From what you did it looked like you were trying to connect to the source files in cvs :D

you have your mysql/bin set in your path statement??..

yes I do

Same problem...
and yes my PATH is good, I think.. here it is.. btw, my OS is XP

and this is the error I received when I tried it in c:\mysql\bin..

it reads that you can use mysql client, as you get the specific err message.

It's not much a matter of client imho, but maybe the server is not running properly.

Is server running on same machine ?
If not, use -h yourhostname when connecting
If it is, try 'telnet 127.0.0.1 3306'

if no DB server running, you'll get a connection failed, host unreachable on port 3306 (sorry, that's french)
[code]
E:\>telnet 127.0.0.1 3306
Connexion

What version of mysql?

1.4, and I dont have the server running yet. It will be on the same machine but for now, I cant log on mysql for some reason...

Problem Fixed:

I uninstalled MySQL, deleted the folder afterwards (C:\Mysql) then deleted the my.ini (C:\WINDOWS\my.ini) "for the second time", downloaded a new fresh copy of Mysql, reinstalled and it connected just fine...
