10.5: How to enable PHP and MySQL in 10.5
Authored by: skribble on Nov 12, '07 03:14:30PM

There are a number of ways to deal with the mysql.sock location, outlined here

The one listed in this hint is probably the best solution, but simply creating an alias also works perfectly well. The problem with editing my.conf is a number of 3rd party DB apps assume mysql.sock in in /tmp (which is the mysql default). So you'll have to deal with that (more of an inconvenience then a problem).
