A couple of things to try.

1. Ensure MySQL is running
2. The socket is correct, it could be 3306 or 3400
3. Check the database name
4. Check the userid for the table
5. Check the password

Its normally one of those. At least for me anyway.

how about the /settings/site.ini

[Database Settings]
# Use either ezmysql or ezpostgresql
Database Implementation=ezpostgresql
# Name of server to connect to
Server=localhost
# DB user name
User=<user>
# DB Password
Password=<password>
# database name you have created in the previous step
Database=<name_of_database>

A quick way to get a site going that has stopped like this is to backup all your settings files.

GNU/Linux: tar cvzf settings.tgz settings
Windows: Zip -a settings.zip settings

and then change the site.ini file in settings/site.ini or if you have one site.ini.php making CheckValidity true.

[SiteAccessSettings]
CheckValidity=true

This will check your system out, file permissions, database connection etc... Really handy.

For your sockets, thats a MySQL issue, it is controlled via the /etc/my.cnf
