you might also need to check that the my.cnf file is configured to reference
the sock file. additionally, you should check to make sure the mysql
app/daemon is even running. (this has bit me a few times when i've been
tired!!)


sample my.cnf file......
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cat /etc/my.cnf
[mysqld]
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
set-variable = max_connections=3
#set-variable = log-error=/var/log/mysql_err.log
#set-variable = log=/var/log/mysql_query.log
##set-variable = log-bin=/var/log/mysql_bin.log
#set-variable = log-slow-queries=/var/log/mysql_slow.log
# Default to using old password format for compatibility with mysql 3.x
# clients (those using the mysqlclient10 compatibility package).
old_passwords=1

[mysql.server]
user=mysql
#basedir=/var/lib
basedir=/usr


[mysqld_safe]
err-log=/var/log/mysqld.log
pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid

I think it's either you don't have read permissions to the socket
file '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock', or it doesn't exist.  Can you check?
