Hi all, With older mysql extension, when I wanted to connect to localhost, I was using host = localhost connect_type = tcp and it made a socket connection. That's why the "tcp" default worked most of the time. Now with mysqli, it no longer works: I have to tell "socket" in connect_type. Please confirm this behavior. Also, looking at the php manual for both mysql and mysqli, I wonder if we should keep the connect_type parameter. Marc
