Comment(by robertlay@…):

 I hope it's ok for me to post on this ticket as well. Let me know if it's
 not. I'm doing so because I'm having a similar problem. However, I have
 performed a brand new install - no upgrading. In installing mysql5-server
 @5.0.83_0 and then as you say, run "sudo port load mysql5-server" to start
 mysql and thus create the mysqld.sock file, but I'm not getting a sock
 file at all. I am completely unable to run mysql as a result. I have
 completely uninstalled and reinstalled properly. Any suggestions? I've
 been trying to get Apache2, PHP5, and MySQL5 installed and the only one
 I'm having problems with is MySQL. Thanks!
