socket = /var/tmp/mysql.sock
Try changing /var/tmp to /tmp.
Error 2003 (HY000):Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (111)
What are the results of this command:
$ netstat -na |grep LISTEN
Do you see anything listening on port 3306?
But I'm want just use mysql command line
My suggestion -- as one who has fought with this in the past -- is to
just use the native Windows port, from mysql.com. If you really need a
Cygwin client, you can pass flags to MySQL's configure script to build
only the client stuff. You can then use the resulting mysql program and
libmysqlclient library to connect to the native Windows server.
