Does that file exist?  If not, find it by doing:

1. updatedb & (then wait for the job to finish)
2. locate mysql.sock

Then create a symbolic link from the expected location (/tmp/mysql.sock) to
the actual location using "ln -s".  Alternately you can edit phpMyAdmin to
look for the socket file in the actual location where it resides on your
system.
