Os X Server 10.4.2 / Mysql.sock

I've read with interest many posts about mysql.sock. My problem is similar, but somewhat different. I'm trying to install a program called Webevent View on an OS X Server. The company (MeetingMaker.com) won't support Mac OS X although they will support linux / unix ...go figure.

I am in a test environment and am starting with a fresh install of 10.4.2 server software. I am using the pre-installed mysql rather than downloading and installing an "off the shelf version".

I installed DBI and DBD for mysql successfully.

I successfully installed Webevent.

When I then attempt to connect to the site with a browser I get the familiar "can't connect to the local MySQL server through socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock'.

I know that the socket exists. I know that when I shut down mysql it deletes it correctly and when I start it up it creates it correctly. I can see from MySQL Administrator application that mysql is looking in the right place.

Webeven

Yes, I did manage to configure and get Webeven working on OS X Server 10.4.8. Works well....don't expect any help from the company (at least as of Fall 2005). They weren't even willing to look at it with me. I can't remember exactly all that I needed to do to make it work, but it can be done.
