WampServer

Welcome to phpMyAdmin 2.10.1

Error
MySQL said:

#2003 - Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10013)



i have set up wamp 2.0 and when i go to use phpmyadmin it doesnt work. then i realised mysql isnt working. tried earlier versions of mysql too but same problem.

[localhost] does open up the wampserverpage and even sqlite opens

in my phpinfo() file my sql looks like this


mysql
MySQL Support enabled
Active Persistent Links 0
Active Links 0
Client API version 5.0.45

Directive Local Value Master Value
mysql.allow_persistent On On
mysql.connect_timeout 60 60
mysql.default_host no value no value
mysql.default_password no value no value
mysql.default_port no value no value
mysql.default_socket no value no value
mysql.default_user no value no value
mysql.max_links Unlimited Unlimited
mysql.max_persistent Unlimited Unlimited
mysql.trace_mode Off Off





looked up my ports and 3306 is listening so i presume mysql is running? or could something else be using this port? there is a service running called wampservermysqldnt i think its called..
iv tried to run mysql command box and it failes to connect also with the same error-

Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10013)

anyone have any idea?

Not an actual guru at this wamp stuff,
you could try backing up your data like sites, databases and so on...
Then remove any mysql, php, wamp related and reload it again from scratch - but don't play like loading a different version of PHP or MySQL and so on afterwards.

Not sure give it a try.
