Hi, I am running PHP 5.0.4 and MySQL 4.1.3a. (+Apache 2.0.54) When I run a PHP script that attempts to connect to MySQL I get the following error:
Database ERROR:Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/usr/local/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock' (13) I have placed my socket file on such location when I was configuring MySQL and PHP was compiled with --with-mysql-sock=/usr/local/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock (and even with /usr/local/mysql/tmp). I even edited my php.ini (/usr/local/php/lib/php.ini, I have installed PHP with --prefix=/usr/local/php) and modified variable: mysql.default_socket = "/usr/local/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock" It still refuses to connect through the socket! I have also run a simple mysql_connect() script to see if the intended script was the culprit but again, it could not connect to MySQL. phpinfo() indicates the following: MYSQL_SOCKET /usr/local/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock MYSQL_INCLUDE -I/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql MYSQL_LIBS -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient And for directives: mysql.default_port no value no value mysql.default_socket /usr/local/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock /usr/local/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock That being said, I "CAN" connect to the database via "127.0.0.1" through TCP/IP but not through Unix Socket file. The permissions on mysql.sock is: ls -la /usr/local/mysql/tmp/ total 0 drwxrwx--- 2 mysql mysql 80 2005-08-24 22:09 ./ drwxr-xr-x 13 root mysql 328 2005-08-22 20:03 ../ srwxrwxrwx 1 mysql mysql 0 2005-08-24 22:09 mysql.sock= Again, I can connect to DB through other programs (non-php) or via commandline and even TCP but not through Unix socket file!!
