Answer 2

1. Check whether mysql-server is started ps aux | grep mysql
2. If it does not start, check the mysql error log and post the log. The log is usually under /var/log

I think it’s probably because mysql-server failed to start successfully

Answer 3

The sock paths used by the client and server in the configuration file should be consistent
