[TTLUG] php mysql.sock problems

[Anonymous]

Hi all,
I am now mucking around with apache/mysql/php on my machine.
Have apache running, I have mysqld running - I could connect to the
server and create databases and so on from the command line. PHP4.3.6
is also good - configured --with-msyql etc.

When I run my first php scripts to connect - i get the error
 mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

I don't have mysql.sock anywhere.. could anyone help ?
Thanks
Vidya
