(1) Did you SIGHUP the postmaster after editing the config file?
("pg_ctl reload" is the easy way to do this.)  If not, it's still using
whatever setup you had before.

(2) It's fairly likely that PHP will try to connect via TCP/IP even for
a local server.  If so, the relevant pg_hba.conf line will be the one
for 127.0.0.1, not the "local" line.  "local" is for Unix-socket
connections.
