    change your xampp port number through `php.ini` file present in xampp/php folder. then restart your server and try to connect with that new port number. – Alive to die - Anant Jul 01 '15 at 18:41
  • is your xampp server , apache is running ? – Hitesh Mundra Jul 01 '15 at 18:48
  • I got this error once, the reason was I installed MySQL and then XAMPP which installed another instance of MySQL. Just change the port configuration as @anantkumarsingh said and you'll be ok. – carlosherrera Jul 01 '15 at 19:00
