title: Connecting to MYSQL Server from SQL Yog
body: <p>I know this question has been asked many times, but I couldn't solve my problem after seeing all the relevant questions.</p>
  
  <p>I had installed Visual Studio 2012 Express edition on my Windows 7 Dell Inspiron laptop. So, Microsoft SQL Server was automatically installed along with it.</p>
  
  <p>After that, I installed SQL Yog Community Edition. After starting it for the first time, I tried to connect to the MYSQL Host. I kept the information as it is, namely,</p>
  
  <pre><code>MySQL Host Address: localhost
  Username: root
  Port: 3306
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I did not put any password.<br>
  After doing all this, when I said Connect, it gives the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>"Error No. 2003 Can't connect to MySQL Server on 'localhost' (10061)"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>After all this, I thought the problem was with the installation of SQL on my machine. Hence I downloaded Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express Edition and installed it. But still, SQL Yog is facing the same problem. </p>
  
  <p>What should I do?</p>
