Cannot connect: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'

This is almost definitely a configuration problem. My guess is, that you are using binaries mixed from various sources or something similar. For example, it might be, that your mysql server is listening on /var/lib/mysql.sock, but the C client library is listening on /tmp/mysql.sock.
A simple solution is using a soft link. A better solution is recompiling the C client library with proper path definitions and then recompiling DBD::mysql.
