MySQL can listen on a local unix socket (named pipe in Windows), an
internet TCP/IP port, or both.  If your MySQL is running, it could be
listening on the local socket or named port, which has a different url
than localhost:3306.  MySQL can be configured to also listen on a TCP/IP
port, which is what you code is apparently expecting.

Although the fact that your MySQL Workbench cannot connect either
suggests that MySQL is not running at all.

Configuring MySQL is a bit beyond the scope of this list, although I'm
sure there are people here who know how to do it.  What OS are you using?
