mysql.sock is created by mysqld when it starts, and destroyed when it stops.
haha. you're absolutely right. that doesn't make any sense. i wasn't thinking about the nature of socket files when i wrote that.
now that i go back and read the post i was referring to, i think the poster was actually talking about the privileges of the enclosing folder, not the socket itself. my bad.
but, regardless, i think it's a path problem anyway, as i mentioned earlier.
