Cara mengatasi error ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) 

 
    # The following options will be passed to all MySQL clients
    [client]
    #socket      = /tmp/mysql.sock
    socket        = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

    # Here follows entries for some specific programs

    # The MySQL server
    [mysqld]
    #socket      = /tmp/mysql.sock

2. Buat folder mysqld/  di direktori /var/run/ :

    sudo mkdir -p /var/run/mysqld/

3. Then create a mysqld.pid file with touch:

    sudo touch /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid

4. Next create a mysqld.sock file with touch:

    sudo touch /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

5. Now change the ownerships of the directory and files to mysql:mysql like this:

    sudo chown mysql:mysql -R /var/run/mysqld

6. And restart MySQL like this to get those files set and created:

    sudo service mysql restart
