Because /etc/koha.conf is what you should have edited.

The 2nd line of koha.conf contains the hostname
hostname=localhost

And thats what C4::Context uses to create a database handler.

If it cant read the /etc/koha.conf file or you havent changed the hostname
there it will be defaulting to trying to use localhost
