i got the above error my code was like this
var mysql = require('mysql');
var con = mysql.createConnection({
host: "localhost",
user: "username",
password: "password",
socketPath: "/Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock"
});
con.connect(function(err) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log("Connected!");
con.query("CREATE DATABASE mydb", function (err, result) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log("Database created");
});
});
con.end();
