Thanks Lalit, Actually Database is working fine and also I tried start and stop of MySQL Service. My problem is that I can not connect it from .NET. It gives MySQLException that "Unable to connect server". Thanks VIkram

Try start/stop the mysql service on the server by logging into the server as root from the command line interface and run the following command/s. service mysql stop service mysql start service mysql restart You can also use the following. /etc/init.d/mysql start /etc/init.d/mysql stop
