> Well inside config.inc.php I changed tcp to socket $cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] = 'socket'; et voila! Now I can access the site. Why does TCP not work? No idea? Why I still have Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed. no idea either. And then there is the issue with the databases I need moved from the old location. But this is great progress.<br>

</div>TCP networking is disabled by default, as the port's notes state:<br>
<br>
<br>
$ port notes mysql55<br>
mysql55 has the following notes:<br>
<div class=""> On activation if no /opt/local/etc/mysql55/my.cnf file exists one<br>
will be created which loads<br>
/opt/local/etc/mysql55/macports-default.cnf.<br>
<br>
If a /opt/local/etc/mysql55/my.cnf file exists MacPorts does not<br>
touch it and any changes you make to /opt/local/etc/mysql55/my.cnf<br>
will be preserved (e.g., during port upgrades, deactivations or<br>
activations). /opt/local/etc/mysql55/my.cnf is a good place to<br>
customize your mysql55 installation.<br>
<br>
Any changes made to /opt/local/etc/mysql55/macports-default.cnf<br>
will be lost during port upgrades, deactivations or activations so you<br>
are advised to not make changes here. Currently<br>
/opt/local/etc/mysql55/macports-default.cnf contains only one<br>
directive; to disable networking. With disabled networking it is<br>
possible to install and have running all the MacPorts mysql ports<br>
simultaneously.<br>
<br>
<br>
</div>You can enable networking in my.cnf if you want to connect to this server from another computer; otherwise you should leave it disabled as that's more secure.<br>
