Error mysql sequelize node ts ECONNREFUSED

Question

I have a problem with sequelize, which is not letting me connect to a database that I have, it is strange since I can connect from the shell with the same credentials.

Error:

ConnectionRefusedError [SequelizeConnectionRefusedError]: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:3306

}

Code:

import { Sequelize } from 'sequelize'

// connect to mysql database
export const db = new Sequelize( 'db_restaurant', 'root', '1234', {
    host: 'localhost',
    dialect: 'mysql',
})

Class server.ts

async dbConnection () {
        try {
            await db.authenticate();
            console.log( 'Connection to the database has been established successfully.' );
        }
        catch ( error : any ) {
            console.log( error );
        }
    }

MySQL Workbench: enter image description here

also install mariaDB from xampp to test that it is mysql workbench, however it didn't work either, but from the shell I was able to connect to xampp, obviously I tried to change the port to 3307 or another, but it didn't work either

I am developing this in a windows development environment
