Are you sure the MySQL server is actually started? Check the MySQL System Preference that was installed - if the server isn't started, then you'll receive this error message. -

This is strange. This morning it works. Turning off the computer and rebooting fixed something! -

Yes, since you probably installed the MySQL Startup item, per my instructions, when you rebooted your machine, MySQL started up with everything else. The error before was because MySQL was not actually started per the System Preference.
