I knew it was a bad example to run external python, so I tried to run
socket connection directly from the php file client.php, it got the
same error "socket_connect() failed. Reason: () Permission denied" at
$result = socket_connect($socket, "localhost", 60000).
Once again, it was fine to run the client.php from the command line. I
can feel something was missing either in php or apache ....

Forget about client.py, and all files are with 755 access permission.
It is not my first time to program and run php, but it is my first
time to run php file calling socket connection. Something was not
quite right here.
