This is a weird one as mysqld.sock should be created when you start mysql, but then mysql can't start because it can't find the mysqld.sock file!
Anyway, I'm not sure how yu lin fixed this problem, but a suggestion I found on another list that worked for me was to open up my.cnf (mine's in /etc/mysql/ on my Debian unstable box) and comment out the following line like so:
#old_passwords = 1
Restart mysql (/etc/init.d/mysql restart) and hopefully you'll be good to go.
If you're not sure if this is your problem or not, try restarting mysql and look for something like this in your syslog file:
Sep 28 19:20:35 xxx mysqld_safe[6552]: started
Sep 28 19:20:35 xxx mysqld[6556]: 050928 19:20:35 /usr/sbin/mysqld: unknown variable 'old_passwords=1'
Sep 28 19:20:35 xxx mysqld[6556]:
Sep 28 19:20:35 xxx mysqld_safe[6558]: ended
Cheers,
Paul
