RE: [cobalt-developers] Configure PHP to work with newly added

["Pete Stulginskis" <vps@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've been struggling the past couple of days attempting to resolve this
issue and seemed to identify the issue.

You may of already resolve this, but the conflict I identified had to deal
with the path to the "mysql.sock" location.  MySQL install this in
"/var/lib/mysql".  PHP by default looks in: "/tmp".

You can force PHP to look in another location by adding the path in the
'mysql_connection()' command.

You add the path by appending it to the hostname, ex:
	 "mysql_connection("hostname:/path-to-socketfile",...)

Additionally, the 'extension=mysql.so' in the php.ini file does need
uncommented and that should make PHP & MySQL sing in harmony.
