Thus set vars.mysql_hostname = "localhost" in your service definition...

Ok, so, that works.
I could not have imagined that saying "localhost" would mean "do not
really use localhost but use the socket" so I never even tried it. Thanks.

Well, that's the way mysql client works. Thus the mysql client libraries go the same way. If you run "mysql -h localhost" it also uses the unix socket... "localhost" says it's on the same host thus you may have access to the unix socket...

mysql also doesn't distinguish user grants between unix socket and tcp localhost connection. You can only grant user rights for connections through 'localhost'...
