Unable to connect from django to mysql database

I have created the database on XAMPP mysql which is up and running. 
The database is created,
I am now trying to connect from django with the following connection parameters,
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
'NAME': "djangoproject",
'USER': 'root',
'PASSWORD': '******',
'HOST': 'localhost',
'PORT': ''
}
}
I am getting the following error when executing python3 manage.py runserver and python3 manage.py migrate
django.db.utils.OperationalError: (1049, "Unknown database 'djangoproject'")
I have read a solution to create the database from mysql shell using the create database statement. My question is why i am not able to connect to the database already created on XAMPP mysql.

Do you have multiple mysql instances installed on your computer? If yes, you may be connecting to the wrong one.

try connecting with mysql client via command line first. If it works then your django should work. mysql -uroot –p<your_pass> djangoproject If this work fine then issue with django else issue is in mysql. This is just clue to debug your issue and not the solution.

@sopan So i logged in mysql and used 'show databases;' The djangoproject database is not there in the list.

The databases i see when executing 'show databases;' are information_schema, mysql, performance_schema and sys.

You've missed the port. By default, MySQL is listening to 3306:
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
'NAME': "djangoproject",
'USER': 'root',
'PASSWORD': '******',
'HOST': 'localhost',
'PORT': '3306'
}
}
