If I do:

$user="frank";
$pwd="skinner";
$db="db.cp-productions.f2s.com:walkern";

The following works fine:
$conn = mysql_connect("db.cp-productions.f2s.com:walkern", $user, $pwd); 

If I do:
$conn = mysql_connect($db, $user, $pwd); 

The following error occurs:
Warning: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /web/sites/253/walkern/www.cp-productions.f2s.com/inc/news.php

I think it's something to do with the ':walkern' bit.  It works ok on my other site where I have $user="localhost".

I've tried putting it in quotes, etc.


I have tried it on a 4.06 and a 4.01 build (different ISP's) and both do the same.

Neil.

RTFM: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php

The 'walkern' part is assumed to be port/unix socket path.
