Did you grant yourself access? Use the command:

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO Username@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'Password' WITH GRANT OPTION;

Replace username with your mysql username and replace your password with what password you are using. Note: You must be using user root to grant priveleges to another user, unless ofcourse the user you are using has the grant priveleges as well.

To connect to mysql using root user use the command:

mysql -u root

Hope this helps.
