Connection through socket fails on Mac

[Nick-B]

I’m looking through some older Forum threads on this @machouinard since I’m not familiar with using Navicat myself. Have you tried anything like this?

Connect to MySQL from Navicat

OK, I managed to get Navicat working with Local. Here’s what I did. In Local on the database tab, copy the “Socket” path. In Navicat, edit the connection and on the “Advanced” tab paste the path into the “Use socket file” field and check the checkbox to apply it.
