This is very old, several years, info you've been passing along.
Mysql switches are on by default now. Mac OSX (Server for me) is not
10.4 Tiger, you've posted 10.2 Jaguar info, one version prior to 10.3
Panther which was itself released over a 18 months ago.
Thanks anyway. :)

You haven't given us much to go on, other than "it doesn't work,"
which
isn't really helpful. We can't give you "specific ideas where to

until you give us specific details of what's wrong. Please describe
what happens. Do you get an error message? What is it? While

at it, show us the relevant lines of code (hide the password, of
course).
You say mysql, php, and apache are working separately. I take it
that
php scripts are running via web access (apache)? I ask because some
previous Mac OS upgrades replaced the apache config with a newer one
with php turned off.
Meanwhile, the Apache user is irrelevant. The php script just
needs a
valid *mysql* user and password to authenticate.
"bounce" = restart

I can do it if I know where to look. I am no expert, just one
who uses
tis setup, i.e., "it just works." I have used the previous
version for
years and it "just worked." That's why I have no idea what could
possibly be different.
Not to say I haven't built these before, but this should be
working! :(
What's led me to this problem is that I have phpmyadmin installed
and
it can't access mysql as it could just fine before.
I have had help from the guys at phpmyadmin who have no sent me
here.
No one "gets it."
So, any specific ideas where to look???
Thanks,
Gil
p.s. I don't know what you mean by "bounce the MYSQL DB."

I don't do MACs, but here is a shot in the dark.
In some/many cases Apache gets invoke as user "nobody";
which would be the the "OS user" that needs to be granted access to
MYSQL.
I'm willing to bet that the failure to connect into MYSQL via
PHP from
Apache is due
to a permissions/login/authorization issue.
You also wrote:
If you enable LOGGING & bounce the MYSQL DB, some clue about what
is or
is not
happening to MYSQL will be written to the logfile.
Discern what the clues are reporting and fix the problem.
HTH & YMMV

I'm on Mac OSX and Mysql is built-in, so is php.
My php has built-in support for mysql.
Both php and mysql are up and running. I have tested both.
All this
is running on this machine, so is Apache.
I can log into mysql at the CLI with my superuser and access the
'mysql' db -the only one I currently have.
I have a good php test connect script but cannot connect to mysql.
I have checked the mysql variables and entered the socket location
into the script, no help.
What else can possibly be wrong? Is there something in a mysql
config file or something that is off?
This is an upgrade install of Mac OSX 10.4 Server over 10.3 Server
(I'm not a wiz) but have used it long enough. I have changed
nothing
and it worked fine before.
Any suggestions? Again, I did not build this it's all built-in
and
working fine. I simply can't connect with php. Separately, mysql
and php both work.
Thanks,
Gil
