It is not a passwd or server running issue and the mysql server is
running local to the web server. I can use a mysql client to connect
to the server just fine. Any ideas?
I bet you don't have a mysql.sock file in /tmp/. There will be one on
your system somewhere. Run the MySQL client and execute the status
command \s to find the proper location. Then edit your php.ini
file. Find the setting for mysql.default_socket and set it to the
proper location. You must restart Apache for php.ini changes to take
effect.

Good thought but it seems like the socket file is being created.
