Great info, although 1 slight misinformation, MySQL for 10.5 x86 install still required patching the mysql.sock file via symlink… mysql client and mysql admin utility will still work fine, but PHP will fail with “Warning: mysql_connect(): Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/var/mysql/mysql.sock’ (2) in /Users/ktiedt/- on line 1″

Versions:
Server version: 5.1.34 MySQL Community Server (GPL)
OS X: 10.5.7
PHP: 5.2.8

Thanks none the less, this covered everything in getting this setup locally
