Mysql error 10061 on local network

I'm tryig to connect to a local server his databases (located at 192.168.0.198), but I'm getting the 10061 error.

When I try connecting true putty (then just an normal mysql login) it gives me no problems. A mincraft plugin uses the following command to login to the database: mysql://localhost:3306/DB_NAME no problems there.

But when I try it with mysql workbench, and cmd. It refuses to work.

Anyone got any idea/solution how I could fix this?

i had the exact same problem with the exact error message.

after reading @ruakh's comment i checked my.cnf and I noticed that the mysql server is bind to 127.0.0.1 ip address which is a loopback that can be reached only locally.

when i changed it to bind to the regular ip address (not loop) it resolved the issue. i could connect properly. you should try that ! :)

good luck
