Can't create TCP/IP socket

I'm trying to develop my first GAE Python app with the cloud sql. during development, I'm trying to connect to a local Mysql instance. In my development enviro I've tried to connect to both the cloud sql instance I've created, and my local. for both, I get this:

OperationalError: (2004, "Can't create TCP/IP socket (10104)")

Any ideas?

The code that calls it is this:

rdbms.connect(instance=CLOUDSQL_INSTANCE, database=DATABASE_NAME,          user=USER_NAME, password=PASSWORD, charset='utf8')
