Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php If you want to read settings from the my.cnf you have to use MySQLi and provide the option MYSQLI_READ_DEFAULT_GROUP, ext/mysql is legacy code. (see also http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=31577 ) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-10-15 17:14:41] marc at perkel dot com Description: ------------ When a PHP application tries to call MySQL and it is set to talk to localhost it talks only to the socket and not to TCP 127.0.0.1. In my.cnt I set the client as follows: [client] protocol=TCP However that is ignored. I'm running a web server hosting some 100 applications installed by many different people. So changing all the localhost setting to 127.0.0.1 isn't practical. What I want to do is not use the socket at /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock at all. The reason is that I'm trying to mugrate all mysql to a dedicated mysql server and having the web server talk to 127.0.0.1 and link them with an SSH tunnel. In this setup there will be no socket. I left a bug report at mysql.com and they blame the problem on PHP so i'm now here to let you know about it. Reproduce code: --------------- Set configuration to localhost and disable socket and PHP can't talk to TCP 127.0.0.1 Expected result: ---------------- I expect PHP to ignore the unix socket and talk to TCP 127.0.0.1 Actual result: -------------- No access ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42977&edit=1
