Ok I got this problem resolved, it happens if the database.php config file mentions host as "localhost" and localhost does not directly resolve to 127.0.0.1 but to something else (which in turn resolves to host) , in my case it was resolving first to the PC name. changing the mysql host to 127.0.0.1 , resolved the problem.
