Your script being a client program implies that you have to tell it which host it should be looking for a mysql server on. In other words, if your server is not running on the same host as your program (and even then), you MUST enter a host name or ip address. > Is it neccessary that the mysql > server there and run as a service( In my system, if > the mysql service is stopped means, i can't connect > the DB as well as i can't open 'mysql command line > client'. It is not necessary to run mysql as a service, however it is necessary to run it somehow, that being as a service or standalone application. The command line client is still a client, thus it depends on the mysql server being accessible.
