Yes, Apache is connecting to Postgres on the same machine so localhost
should be sufficient for IP purposes.
Not sure that it applies here, but what does ifconfig show?

Correct. The issue is then why psql and stand alone PHP can see the
domain socket while PHP through Apache does not. Not sure why that is at

that user have permissions on the socket file(s)?
