Run this command:

/path/to/cli/php -i|grep MYSQL_SOCKET


MYSQL_SOCKET => /var/mysql/mysql.sock

What does that show? It sounds like the PHP module for Apache is using
a different php.ini file then the CLI version.


I know for a fact that Apache is using:
/usr/local/php5/lib/php.ini

It also looks like the CLI versions php.ini is not pointing to the
proper path to the mysql.sock. Look under the mysql section of your
php.ini and fix that up. To see where its pointing, do this:

/path/to/cli/php -i|grep php.ini


Configuration File (php.ini) Path => /etc

but when I looked inside /etc there was no php.ini, but there is a php.ini.default...
I could create another here...

or should I create a symbolic link to the php.ini that Apache is using?


That'll tell you where the php.ini file is for the CLI version.

Enjoy.

ok. so the location of mysql.sock is a problem.
I found it at /tmp/mysql.sock

Why is the CLI looking for it at /var/myslq/mysql.sock?

Now the question is...
Do I change the mysql settings so that mysql.sock is at
/tmp/mysql.sock? (If I do, will the PHP module with Apache still be ok?)
or
Do I change where the CLI is looking for mysql.sock?

I'm running a php script from the command line (I'm on OS X) and I'm

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through
socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

Here's the script (this just tests a connection and a query...the
actual script imports data from text files):


#!/usr/bin/php
<?php

echo "HELLO WORLD\n";
$connection = mysql_connect(HOST, ID, PW);
mysql_select_db(DB, $connection);
$result = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) as num_of_countries from
geo_entities");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
print_r($row);

?>


I tested the script from a browser and the connection and query worked.
Do I have to do something special in order for PHP CLI to connect to
MySQL?
