      The <parameter>server</parameter> parameter can also include a port

+       Whenever you specify &quot;localhost&quot; or
+       &quot;localhost:port&quot; as server, the MySQL client library will
+       override this and try to connect to a local socket (named pipe on
+       Windows). If you want to use TCP/IP, use &quot;127.0.0.1&quot;
+       instead of &quot;localhost&quot;. If the MySQL client library tries to
+       connect to the wrong local socket, you should set the correct path as
+       mysql.default_host in your PHP configuration and leave the server field
+       blank.

        Support for &quot;:port&quot; was added in PHP 3.0B4.
