short answer
in /opt/local/etc/php.ini I had specified a different socket for
the MySQL connection
/opt/local/etc/php.ini was gone
The only things I can pin it on are one of the port upgrade/port
deactivate/port activate commands.
It's fixed now, just wondering who the culprit is.

Sorry about the problem, but I'm not sure how it happened. As far as
I can tell, php5 does not touch your php.ini, and never has. It only
installs sample files named php.ini-dist and php.ini-recommended and
prints a message advising you to copy one of these to the proper
location.
I think the location of php.ini may have been moved to etc/php5 with
php5 @5.2.10. I was paying that much attention when I upgraded.
Ryan, I see you are one of the maintainers of php5.
Would you consider adding:
variant ming description {Add library to create SWF (Flash) format
movies} {
depends_lib-append \
port:ming
configure.args-append \
--with-ming \

Re: php.ini removed
Why did moving it break things is I think what first needs to be learned. Why was ini put in a php5 directory? As far as I know php wants to look in some standard locations. /etc is one if them so that would translate to /opt/local/etc/php.ini. Of cource there are a few other locations but I believe etc is pretty normal. I think it should have just kep working. Any idea why it did not work for you?

Because it didn't move back when I switched back to an older version
of php5

That would be as standard location - especially if there is an
expectation that a php6 (or php7) might also be made available on the
system.
Of cource there are a few other locations but I believe etc is
pretty normal. I think it should have just kep working. Any idea why
it did not work for you? What did you have to change to get it to
work?
I don't use the standard socket location for MySQL5 as provided in
MacPorts - I set the socket values for PHP to use in the .ini file
like this...
; Default socket name for local MySQL connects. If empty, uses the
built-in
mysql.default_socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
; Default socket name for local MySQL connects. If empty, uses the
built-in
mysqli.default_socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
You can also run 'port contents portname' to see where all the files
registered to that port are.
The answer to the change is here
http://trac.macports.org/changeset/50173/trunk/dports/lang/php5/Portfile
When I did the port upgrade php5 I didn't see the message that was
output
ui_msg Your ${prefix}/etc/php.ini has been moved to ${phpinidir}/
php.ini
I guess for me that something like this
COPY ${prefix}/etc/php.ini ${phpinidir}
as opposed to
move ${prefix}/etc/php.ini ${phpinidir}
would have made it transparent (assuming that there is a copy function
like move in the port language)
It's my bad, since I didn't read the message when I did the upgrade.

Yes, but it's not just a matter of switching back; it's a matter of being able to install simultaneously. Due to this change, it is now possible to install and activate php4 and php5 at the same time, which I intend to carry forward to php6 when that becomes available. ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users

I *know* nothing is supposed to touch the php.ini file I had a copy lurking somewhere - it just took me an hour to test everything, and to figure out that just because phpMyAdmin works from one server doesn't necessarily mean it works from all servers - localhost goes to the socket, everyone else uses port 3306.
