Database connection via socket in DataTables Editor

gotomedia

I am trying to connect the Editor to the database via socket. I am always getting back an error [2002]: Connection refused.
My host entry in the config.php looks like this: "host" => "localhost:/tmp/mysql5.sock",

Any clue why this does not work?

gotomedia

This seems to be a problem specific to the Hoster (1und1)!
The host entry has to look like this to work: "localhost;unix_socket=/tmp/mysql5.sock"
