The error that you have is normally that MySQL in not running.
If it is running then MySQL client can not find the sock file.
I should not think you will have to reinstall.

Subject: Mysql Error


When I try to connect to the MySql server on localhost I get the 
following error:


Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

I am not quite sure what this means.

I am running Mac OS X 10.2.3.  Before I upgraded from 10.1, I had no 
problems, but now am unable to connect at all.

Is it possible to remove MySql (and how do I go about it) so that I can 
reinstall it again?

Sorry if these are stupid questions, but I can't seem to find how to 
uninstall MySql in the manual.

Thanks
