I am attempting to connect MySQL server to MySQL Workbench but receive the following error:

workbench

I believe I have my server running, when I run 'mysqld --console' in 'C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin', I receive the following output:

commandline

The last line seems to indicate that it is listening on the correct port... but I am also not unconvinced that my server is even starting properly. Shouldn't I be able to access MySQL from the terminal one the server starts?

  • Does this answer your question? [ERROR 1698 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39281594/error-1698-28000-access-denied-for-user-rootlocalhost) – Tangentially Perpendicular Dec 15 '21 at 00:14
  • @TangentiallyPerpendicular this error seems similar but I do not even make it to the point where I am able to query the mysql.user table. – underwol Dec 15 '21 at 02:52
