[MM3-users] Using MySQL via unix socket

Hi,

I'm trying to setup mailman3 on Linux and try to find out how the connection string must look like to let it accept unix sockets.

A call to

mysql -umailman -p

successfully uses the socket on the machine and logs in. I tried

mysql+pymysql://mailman:mailmanpass@127.0.0.1/mailman3?charset=utf8&use_unicode=1&unix_socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

as the connection string but it says that mysql server is not available. Which is the same if remove the "unix_socket" parameter. I have found this parameter when searching the net, but I'm not sure if it is supported.

Thanks in advance and best regards

Torge
