Luis,
Are you connecting from a different machine? In that case, you may
need to modify the MySQL configuration file to allow for connections
coming from other machines.
Modify the my.ini file in Marketcetera\mysql directory, and include
this in the [mysqld] section:
bind-address = 0.0.0.0
Otherwise, the default is to listen only on localhost, which disallows
connectivity from other machines.
See
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/can-not-connect-to-server.htmlfor more information - there may be other issues.
Can you connect from command line using the mysql binary that's in the
marketcetera/mysql/bin directory? You can run this command
<marketcetera>\mysq\bin\mysql -u marketcetera -p marketcetera
and supply marketcetera as the password.
hope this helps
