Re: Symbolic link needed with mysql and PHP?

[Keith Roberts <keith@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

On Centos 5.8, I have changed the default path to the MySQL 
socket file using this setting in php.ini:

; Default socket name for local MySQL connects.
; If empty, uses the built-in ; MySQL defaults.
; http://www.php.net/manual/en/mysql.configuration.php#ini.mysql.default-socket
mysql.default_socket = /var/lib/databases/mysql/mysql.sock

If you are running PHP as an apache module, don't forget to 
stop and start apache to make it re-read any changes you 
make to the php.ini file.
