MySQL Error /tmp/mysql.sock (Searched already)

Error connecting to MySQL: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

Funny thing though is that all my sites still work and they can load their database(s), the phpmyadmin also works and I can login and view tables,etc. But directadmin does not let me create databases, view, etc.

FIXED:

server:/var/run/mysqld# nano /usr/local/directadmin/conf/mysql.conf

ADDED LINE:

socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
