You can use "mysqladmin -h127.0.0.1 variables" to determine where the socket file should be (according to the MySQL server). Assure that it is indeed /tmp/mysql.sock as you/the client think it is. Read http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Can_not_connect_to_server.html and follow the suggestions there. If that does not help, write again and describe which facts you have found out according to this page.
