I apologise.. I know this question has been asked many times before, but I've tried lots of suggestions, and simply can't find a solution.
The problem is when I try to connect on Workbench, I get the error: "Failed to Connect to MySQL at 127.0.0.1:3306 with user root"
But if I run "shell> mysqladmin version", I get:
mysqladmin Ver 8.42 Distrib 5.7.19, for Linux on x86_64
