Hello, I am a novice linux user and using Parrot OS. I wanted to run a nodejs project with mysql connections but I got an error like below, how can I solve it?

It can't connect to the mysql port, check if mysql is running.

I ran the following command:

sudo systemctl status mysql


The result I got:

Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service; disabled; preset: disabled)
Active: active (running) since Thu 2024-02-15 13:49:53 +03; 6h ago

it looks ok?

Share the mysql configuration for your application, what do you have defined to connect to mysql?
