Is there a way to test the database connection via Console?
If Mysqld is running you should be able to see something listening on default port 3306 at all: # telnet localhost 3306 Trying ::1... Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. S 5.5.60-0+deb8u1�-Q6Y?l%p&!�kgCYt]Ur^`F{mysql_native_password ... Disconnect with CTRL+R+] ... However, you should also be able to connect via SQL command line to get the mysql prompt: $ mysql -uUSER -pPASSWORD DATABASENAME Reading table information for completion of table and column names You can turn off this feature to get a quicker startup with -A Welcome to the MySQL monitor.
