check the permission of /tmp folder.
I think mysql user can not access that dir:

I am trying to install MySql on MAC OS X. After the pkg is installed
I am not able to start the MySql server due to the Socket error.

Now, when I check the /tmp folder I see that there is no file by

Has anyone faced a similar problem?
Thanks,
Mustafa.
