Another way ?
Authored by: nebulus on Jan 16, '06 04:45:37AM

I have found another possibility to fix this : change the host url in the config file of the applications using mysql.

I only use phpMyAdmin and Drupal in development on my mac. And in their configuration files the host reference was "http://localhost/some_local_dir". Thus, I replaced localhost by the loopback IP 127.0.0.1, resulting in "http://127.0.0.1/some_local_dir" and everything was working back.

I'm not sure it is a "good" practice, but it worked for me.
