Are we trying to solve poor programming or a bad system config here?
Have you tried to enable error reporting? checked your log files?
Implemented your own error handler?

You should probably start by installing and configuring MySQLAdmin
(http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/index.php) which has better error
handling built in - if you can't get that to work then try reposting
with specific error messages, and which versions of each software you
are using on what platforms and examples of how your code tries to
connect.

Taking a wide stab in the dark, it maybe mysql's interpretation of
'localhost' - read this before reposting:
