MySQL Workbench: How to Start/Stop Server
How to start and stop the local MySQL server using the MySQL Workbench.
- Open MySQL Workbench.
- Select the local connection.
- If there is no connection, make one by clicking the plus icon, setting the hostname to 127.0.0.1 (your computer), the port to 3306, and creating a username.
- Once the SQL editor is open, click on the Server menu, then Startup/Shutdown.
- A new tab will open. Use the Start Server button to turn the server on. Note: You may need to allow the operation in a User Account Control prompt that will pop up.
- When the server is running, open the command line client and enter the password. If it works, a welcome message will be displayed. If not, the command line client will close.
- To stop the server, click Stop Server in the MySQL Workbench tab.
