It seems that there is a bug in cacti for centos x64 - version 0.8.7e
I have commented out line 41 in /var/www/cacti/lib/database.php which solves the problem (with the limitation of using the default MySQL port every time)
How can I report this so that others can recreate it. This happened on a production server, so I'm well, pretty pissed off actually! But hopefully sharing this info will help in the future

Guys:
Thank you for your response - I went through those instructions,
and
again, I got the same error as below.
FATAL: Cannot connect to MySQL server on 'localhost'. Please
make
sure
you have specified a valid MySQL database name in
'include/config.php'
The database configuration in config.php is correct, and is
readable,
because if I change the hostname, the error message changes
accordingly.
I can connect to the MySQL database just fine with the
configuration
information that is in config.php. Any ideas would be
appreciated
If
this become too off topic, someone feel free to say so.
If you have selinux enabled as you should you need to set sebool httpd_can_network_connect_db on.
Chris
OHH DAMN!!!! Of course! SE Linux!! Man, I hate SE Linux sometimes!
I'll
look into that, and hopefully, it would fix it. Thank you Chris
SE Linux is already configured properly,
/usr/sbin/getsebool httpd_can_network_connect_db returns httpd_can_network_connect_db => on
So now, I'm more confused that before?!
