Hey,
What is your php.ini value for "mysql.default_socket" set to?
This will tell PHP where your socket file is for MySQL, and help get you
connected.
You can check this file location by looking in your MySQL my.cnf file
for the line indicating "socket = "
For example, a MAMP install has the following socket definition in my.cnf
socket = /Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock
Hope this helps. Do let us know how you go
Cheers,
Graham
