/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock - try may be this unix socket is created somewhere
else like - /tmp/mysql.sock
check your configuration from
safe_mysqld
MYSQL_UNIX_PORT=${MYSQL_UNIX_PORT:-/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock}
MYSQL_TCP_PORT=${MYSQL_TCP_PORT:-3306}
search for these lines
from that info check wheather that socket file exists
then try to give the socket or port number to the mysql app.
