title: MySQL server is not responding
body: <p>I have <code>easyphp</code> installed in Windows server 2012, when I want to access to <code>phpmyadmin</code> on this server I type :</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://192.168.75.100/modules/phpmyadmin3522x160307103707/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It was running before, but today I got this error message :</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's
    socket is not correctly configured)</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I looked for a similar problem in stackoverflow and all I can find is to check if MySQL running on port 3306, and as you can see its up and running :</p>

  <p>Another solution was to check if mysqld.exe is running, and as you can see its running :</p>

  <p>I found another solution which says:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>mysql default port is 3306 can you try putting it and then try</p>

  <p>and this is my config file :</p>
