#2003 - Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

Hello gys,

I'm new in PHP, after installing Apache, PHP everything went good.
But now I Have intalled the Mysql database and want use phpMyAdmin.
When I try to connect to the Mysql server (http://localhost/PhpMyAdmin/index.php)I get the following error:

#2003 - Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

I installed the phpMyAdmin in the directory:
C:\wwwphp\PhpMyAdmin

in the config.inc.php I have the next:



/**
* Server(s) configuration
*/
$i = 0;
// The $cfg['Servers'] array starts with $cfg['Servers'][1]. Do not use $cfg['Servers'][0].
// You can disable a server config entry by setting host to ''.
$i++;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost'; // MySQL hostname or IP address

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules'] // Host authentication rules, leave blank for defaults
= array();
$i++;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['port'] = '';

Your config filse seems to be correct. The error indicats either you mysql is not running or your mysql is not installed properly. There would be a problem with you installation.
to check whether mysql is working try these command
ps -aux |grep mysqld
or
service mysqld status

this will return the status of mysql.

Regards
Rajesh

any body knows how I can solve this.

Please any link or idea will be gratiful

thanks in advance.
