Hi!

When using 'localhost' in mysql_connect(), php tries to use a socket
to connect to the mysql daemon. Is there a way to force php to resolve
the hostname of localhost, maybe by patching some source file? The
reason is that a socket is not avaible because mysql and apache are
running in different chroot jails on my server.

Hi, I think it is well mentioned in MySQL's docs that localhost has special meaning for MySQL and when it is specified the client tries to connect using unix socket(non-win32). As Sara said, the workaround is 127.0.0.1
