Are you adding the "port" value in the db config array? Here's my
congif setup, using MAMP as on my local machine:
var $default = array(
'driver' => 'mysql',
'persistent' => false,
'host' => 'localhost',
'port' => '8889',
'login' => 'root',
'password' => 'root',
'database' => 'my_db',
'prefix' => ''
);
