I am trying to connect my app engine PHP app to cloud sql via unix socket (I assume that is correct so that I don't have to connect to the ip). The connect via IP works but the unix socket does not. Any ideas? It's also weird that when I ssh into the box, I don't see any /cloudsql/ directory. I can create it by manually starting cloud_sql_proxy but that doesn't persist as soon as I turn debug off. I'm using: $db = new pdo( 'mysql:unix_socket=/cloudsql/testproject-xxxxxx:us-central1:library;dbname=books', 'phpapp', // username 'somepw' // password ); And get SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
