I'm running into a little trouble with MySQL Workbench. This is the situation, I'm developing a database to query it remotely from Android devices. This is the first time I use MySQL Workbench, so I've followed this tutorial:
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/databases/visual-database-creation-with-mysql-workbench/
I have no problem creating the EER diagram and generating the SQL script. The problem comes when I try to connect to a MySQL server. I get this error:
"Failed to Connect to MySQL at 127.0.0.1:3306 with user root. Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 61"

I've also tried using the Local Socket/Pipe connection method with the MAMP Socket in '/Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock', but it gives the same error. And I've also tried using MAMP port 8889 but still nothing.
So anyone knows how to fix it? And another question, can I connect from my Android device to my laptop(where the database is placed) without using MAMP? MySQL needs MAMP to serve queries? And the last thing, am I going into the right way? Or should I do it other way?
Thanks for reading.
You need to sure that Mysql process is running in your system. not sure in MAC but in windows it'called mysqld.exe
well take a look
