Not sure but you can try this:
First, using the command line client, check whether you're using the
correct socket.
mysql> status;
Then, make sure that you have the same entry inside "/etc/my.cnf". (Or,
you can just change the value inside my.cnf to point to /tmp/mysql.sock-
-and see if it works.) Restart mysqld after making any changes...
HTH,
