I am trying to connect to PostgreSQL with DBI on Mac OSX 10.8.  Everything appears to be installed correctly, and I can connect manually to my db with psql.  However, when I try to connect with DBI::Pg, I get the following error:

DBI connect('db=mydb','lincoln',...) failed: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
	Is the server running locally and accepting
	connections on Unix domain socket "/var/pgsql_socket/.s.PGSQL.5432"? at ./dbipic2.pl line 41.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
