Well back to square one with PHP, MySQl and Apache under MacPorts.@ http://localhost/drupal-6.15/install.php?profile=default&locale=en after adding database name, database user and password I get:
Failed to connect to your MySQL database server. MySQL reports the following message: *No such file or directory*. - Are you sure you have the correct username and password? - Are you sure that you have typed the correct database hostname? - Are you sure that the database server is running? For more help, see the Installation and upgrading handbook<http://drupal.org/node/258>. If you are unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your hosting provider. and when I run http://localhost/connect-test.php I still get: *Warning*: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect<http://localhost/function.mysql-connect>]: [2002] No such file or directory (trying to connect via unix:///tmp/mysql.sock) in */opt/local/apache2/htdocs/connect-test.php* on line *2* *Warning*: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect<http://localhost/function.mysql-connect>]: No such file or directory in */opt/local/apache2/htdocs/connect-test.php* on line *2* Could not connect: No such file or directory But I guess I need to add the paths to mysql.sock again..
