Try logging into the mysql instance from the command line by typing in mysql -u root -p and then entering your mysql root password. If you can connect, even if it rejects your username and password, you know it’s up and running correctly.
From that point you can diagnose whether it is username/password issues or whether or not you need to properly configure mysql.ini
