"Permission denied" is a pretty strange error for a TCP connect failure,
as that is not a filesystem operation.

Are you able to connect with psql, or some other non-php client?
Use "psql -h localhost" to make sure it tries a TCP connection not
a Unix-socket connection.


Thanks. You mean like this?  This connects without an error.
