Your php.ini should be in /etc/apache/
Once you have it there restart your Apache server.

Now, let's creat a MySQL connection string in a seperate file (not in
the php.ini, which acording to some of the stuff I have read you have
done. Also there should not a reference to mysql.sock in the php.ini)
that will return errors to us if it fails;

<?php
if(!($dbconnect = mysql_pconnect("name_of_the_database_server",
"user_name", "password"))){
        echo"Failed to connect to database!\n";
        echo mysql_error."\n";
        exit();
        }
if(!mysql_select_db("the_database_you_wish_to_use", $dbconnect)){
        "Failed to select database!\n";
        echo mysql_error()."\n";
        exit();
        }
?>

Let us know how this works for you.
