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

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

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

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
