Restoring or installing vBulletin OSX Yosemite

[marcopolo]

Anyone here have experience and successfully restored a vB system (that was previously hosted) or installed from fresh onto OSX Yosemite?

I'm having a few issues, php, MySQL and apache seem fine but the installer fails after licence input reporting:-

Due to the following errors, the install/upgrade can not continue:•The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please confirm the values entered in the includes/config.phpfile
•Error description: mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/2002): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: nodename nor servname provided, or not known /Users/mark/Sites/test/includes/class_core.php on line 1358
I have checked both mysql via workbench and phpmyadmin and I have a blank DB that allows user root all privileges

I have checked config.php and all the relevant connection credentials are correct,

$config['Database']['dbname'] = ‘test’;

$config['MasterServer']['username'] = ‘root’;
$config['MasterServer']['password'] = ‘password’;

I'm stuck!

Thanks
