From the error message you got Telnet to port 3306: Host 'my-machine-name' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server you can be assured that you made a connection to the MySQL server. The problem is the MySQL server doesn't think you should be allowed to connect. I'm sure if you read the page linked above you will be able to persuade your MySQL server into allowing you to connect to it.

RE: Cannot connect to server
Thanks Shawn!! Here is some more pertinent information: * The server is running on Windows 2003 Server SP-1 * There is no switch between me and the server * I don't know the firewall program, and don't really know how to find out; I checked Program Files and running processes but nothing jumps out at me * I CAN tell you that I cannot open Windows Firewall -- I get an error message saying, "Windows Firewall cannot run because another program or service is running that might use the network address translation component (Ipnan.sys)." From my web research, I think the other "program or service" is remote access/VPN, which obviously I can't just disable * Since I can't get into Windows Firewall, I don't know how else to open up port 3306 Hopefully this information will allow someone out there to better guide me.

Re: mysql.sock file exists, but still cannot connect to server
Okay, with the good help I was getting, and looking at the all clues MySQL was giving me, like "Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist" and "Can't find file: './mysql/host.frm'", I concluded that the 4.1.9 installation conflicts with the default 4.0.18 installation. For instance, 4.0.18 expects files in /var/mysql and /usr/libexec, but 4.1.9 wants them in /usr/local/mysql, etc. There isn't a mysql/data directory anywhere at all for 4.0.18. The two seem incompatible (at least, it's beyond me...). So, I backed out my 4.1.9 installation, and was able to get things going again under 4.0.18. I guess I'll have to wait until Apple upgrades MySQL with OS X 10.3.8. Thanks to all!

MySQL 3.23.46 - Redhat 6.2 - cannot connect to server
We're having severe problems here. We've been running 2.23.3 on Redhat 6.2 for a while and all has been well. I've also installed mysql several times with no issues. We had a hard drive go out today, and since then we have not been able to get mysql to successfully start and accept connections. Typing an simple "mysqladmin version" gives no error message whatsoever. When trying to reinstall and use the latest version, running 'make test' hangs at "Installing Master Databases". Though the server does start up, we can't interact with it in any way. If anyone can be of use, please advise.
