apache mysql - "packets out of order" on 3306

Adam picture Adam · Apr 7, 2012 · Viewed 64k times · Source

I just did a fresh install of Apache server 2.2. Everything works. When I go to localhost I get: "It Works!"

I just installed mySQL5.5 and when I go to localhost:3306 I just get gibberish:

J��� 5.5.22�'���4[LM{D~p�ÿ÷!�€����������6[I=4/+,9z{|�mysql_native_password�!��ÿ„#08S01Got packets out of order

I see many posts on the internet with users with similar problems, but I can't figure out a solution.

Can anyone help?

The mysql service is not a web interface - you cannot connect using a browser. You will need to install a mysql client of some kind.
