Answer 1

Laravel .env add DB_SOCKET with path to mysql.sock

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=database
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=mypassword

DB_SOCKET=/Users/username/Library/Containers/MAMP/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock

or add unix_socket in PDO

PDO('mysql:host=localhost;port=3306;unix_socket=/Users/username/Library/Containers/MAMP/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock', root, mypassword);

Answer 2

Worth checking to see if Mysql is running too.

Answer 3

Too late but hope it can help someone as well.

I am using Vagrant

Just change localhost to 127.0.0.1 AND change the port to 3333

worked perfectly.

Answer 4

I fixed it by following this small tutorial: http://andreys.info/blog/2007-11-07/configuring-terminal-to-work-with-mamp-mysql-on-leopard

[EDIT]: I modified the right php.ini and everything's working fine now.

Now I get the following error:

[Exception]                                                                                            
 DateTime::__construct(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings.
 You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function.
 In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier.
 We selected 'Europe/Berlin' for 'CEST/2.0/DST' instead 

Here's the date.timezone config in php.ini

date.timezone = "Europe/Paris"

I'll try to figure it out myself but if any of you know how to fix it don't hesitate to comment on this. Thanks!

Answer 5

Restarting mysql worked for me:

sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart

Answer 6

Try to add this line

unix_socket: /tmp/mysql.sock

into your config.yml file > doctrine > dbal just after the password line.
