Comment (by benjamin4):

 I'm using Zend Server (in my Dev environment) and this ticket broke the
 database connection (`"Warning: mysqli_real_connect(): [2002] No such file
 or directory (trying to connect via unix:///tmp/mysql.sock)"`). I had to
 change my wp-config to:

   define('DB_HOST', 'localhost:/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock');

 See this forum discussion for more infos:

 Would it be possible to include the socket syntax in the error message?
