mysql.sock nowhere on Machine (2 replies)

I installed mysql-5.1.51 on OSX and I am having a hell of a time with it.

It worked fine for a few days and then something happened. I attempted to research the fix myself but to no avail.

I receive the error:

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

I have searched my whole system for this file. It is not on the box. I have looked in the var directories that everyone suggests to look but to no avail.

I uninstalled and reinstalled and I am still getting the same error. I even tried running the startup scripts again, because I read there was a bug in version 4 of the software.

Please Help.
