Correction: it's not a core-bug, I also have the issue with other sites using
older TYPO3-versions that did work before. In my case it appears to be an issue
with my manually compiled PHP-versions (though I haven't found the reason yet,
all works fine when connecting to 127.0.0.1).

Hi Peter,
I just ran into this situation with a 6.2-dev installation. TYPO3 could not
connect to localhost, although username and password are correct. It did work
after changing to TCP/IP by connecting to 127.0.0.1 instead.
Let me know if it works with 127.0.0.1, I think the cause is a bug somewhere in
the core.

Hello.
I'm trying to install and try out typo3 on my local mac osx lion.
I've installed apache2, php and mysql (via mac ports). All seem to be
running as should.
I can connect to the mysql sever on the command line:
/opt/local/lib/mysql56/bin/mysql -u root -p
Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 7
Server version: 5.6.13 Source distribution
Ive unpacked the typo3 installation and entered
localhost/typo3/intropack-6.1.4/typo3/install/index.php
into my browser which then opens up the install tool with
"Installing TYPO3 6.1"
I enter/select:
Driver: mysql
Username: root
Password: same as on the command one client above
Host: localhost
However I get the error message:
There is no connection to the database!
(Username: root, Host: localhost, Using Password: YES)
Go to Step 1 and enter a valid username and password!
Whats wrong?
Im sure the password is the same as that which worked on the command
line client.
Should I be entering something else for "Host".
Thanks very much in advance.
Is your localconf or whatever they use in 6.x version writable? Check what is
actually written there as DB parameters.
Regards.
