By default it tries to connect to a server running on localhost, which wasn't there. Find the documentation - possibly /usr/share/doc/mysql/manual_toc.html and look at section 2 Installing and section 3 Tutorial. Yu may also want to consider running Webmin or phpMyAdmin to provide Web based GUIs to the database. Both are brilliant, especially phpMyAdmin.
