 OK, I installed apache2, php5, mysql5, and php5-mysql and when every I try
 to do any MYSQL-Related things in PHP, I get this error:

 {{{
 Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: [2002] No such file or
 directory (trying to connect via unix:///tmp/mysql.sock) in [...] on line
 2
 }}}

 ... and I checked and there is not even a file /opt/local/var/run/mysql5
 for a mysqld.sock file to be.  when I do a search for any *.sock file,
 this is what I get:

 {{{
 iMac:~ hank$ locate *.sock
 /private/var/run/vpncontrol.sock
 iMac:~ hank$ locate .sock
 /private/var/run/com.apple.ActivityMonitor.socket
 /private/var/run/com.noiseindustries.FxFactory.socket
 /private/var/run/portmap.socket
 /private/var/run/vpncontrol.sock
 }}}
