今天执行mysql操作的时候出现了错误：ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock’问题
1：首先检查是否安装了mysql-server了
sudo apt-get install mysql-serverto install mysql on ubuntu， 如果mysql-server已经存在了，那么在去尝试一下是否成功，如果还是这个错误的话那么就是文件/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock不存在。
2：如果/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock文件不存在应该怎么办？
执行 vim/etc/mysql/my.cnf
将会看到内容如下：
#
# The MySQL database server configuration file.
#
# You can copy this to one of:
# - "/etc/mysql/my.cnf" to set global options,
# - "~/.my.cnf" to set user-specific options.
#
# One can use all long options that the program supports.
# Run program with --help to get a list of available options and with
# --print-defaults to see which it would actually understand and use.
#
# For explanations see
# http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/server-system-variables.html
#
# * IMPORTANT: Additional settings that can override those from this file!
# The files must end with '.cnf', otherwise they'll be ignored.
#
!includedir /etc/mysql/conf.d/
!includedir /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/
你的mysql的配置在/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d目录下的mysqld.cnf文件，打开如下：
可以看到:bind-address = 127.0.0.1socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock等信息
我的虚拟机是/var/run下面没有mysqld目录，执行下面命令，然后目录和sock文件就都有了
sudo mkdir -p /var/run/mysqld
sudo chown mysql /var/run/mysqld/
sudo service mysql restart
现在就都有了：
然后执行：mysql -u root -p然后提示你输入密码，即可， 如下图所示：
就可以了
