Unable to connect to MySQL: connection("Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)")
如果确认mysql服务正常运行，还提示文章标题的此错误，那就是“/etc/my.cnf”配置文件的问题了。解决办法是修改“/etc/my.cnf”配置文件，在配置文件中添加“[client]”选项和“[mysql]”选项，并使用这两个选项下的“socket”参数值，与“[mysqld]”选项下的“socket”参数值，指向的socket文件路径完全一致。如下：
[mysqld]
datadir=/storage/db/mysql
socket=/storage/db/mysql/mysql.sock
...省略n行（爱E族）...
[client]
default-character-set=utf8
socket=/storage/db/mysql/mysql.sock
[mysql]
default-character-set=utf8
socket=/storage/db/mysql/mysql.sock
