    Dear friends,

    I am using Windows Web server 2008 and XAMPP 1.7.4.
    My mysql server not running and gives the following message:

    #2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)

    Please help me how can solve it.

    If your Mysql server is not running , then it will respond this error.

    So try to locate my.cnf & check the configurations & modify if you find any discrepancy.

    If you are trying to access mysql via php script , then make sure your php-mysql library is enabled.

    Then restart both Apache & Mysql server & try accessing it again.

    @phptechie ,
    Yes I am trying to connect via php. But from XAMPP control panel I can't run it.
    How I check if php-mysql library enable or not?
    I have sent you a private message too.
