This is just a wild shot, and since you're using Ubuntu you're probably familiar with this stuff, but sometimes "localhost" doesn't work. To eliminate this, replace "localhost" with "127.0.0.1" in your source files and try again.
Probably not the solution, but you never know.
That would be a Ubuntu bug then. I think that by default Ubuntu maps localhost to 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts cat /etc/hosts ...should confirm whether the file is there and what is in it. The hosts file getting ignored would potentially have unpleasant repercussions, but I agree we can't rule that out. Could also be a over-active firewall? I haven't kept up with Ubuntu's latest antics. Kas.
