[This is actually a 4.2.0rc1 issue, but there isn't an option for that in the dropdown]

When connecting to mysql with php 4.2.0rc1, having specified 'localhost' as the hostname, 'localhost.localdomain' is actually passed to the mysql server. (Reported in both the error message, and the mysql log.)

This behaviour was seen initially when attempting to use ACID and phpMyAdmin.

After reversion back to php 4.1.2, however, 'localhost' is again passed as expected.

config args: --with-mysql --with-imap --with-kerberos --with-apxs --with-imap-ssl --with-gd

I had the same problems. What I did was the following:
edit the file /etc/hosts

It contained:
127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost

It's now:
127.0.0.1       localhost localhost.localdomain

After reboot it works now.

Yes, that works. But the mysql client just doesn't use the UNIX domain sockets anymore... which is really what you want.
