MySQL manual link
MySQL.com has very thorough online documentation. Anytime you're experiencing a MySQL-related problem, that's the first place to look for fast answers (second being their very active mailing list which many ISPs also are willing to mirror on their news server upon request). This doc page http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Can_not_connect_to_server.html should help you get mysql running.
