I would guess you have directives in a my.cnf file somewhere. To test this do the following. sudo port unload mysql5-server sudo mv /opt/local/etc/mysql5/my{,-old}.cnf sudo port deactivate mysql5-server mysql5 sudo port activate mysql5-server mysql5 sudo port load mysql5-server mysql5 -uroot -p -e 'SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "%socket%";' If the above shows your socket at "/opt/local/var/run/mysql5/mysqld.sock" then examine the contents of /opt/local/etc/mysql5/my-old.cnf for a socket path influencing directive.
