mysql.sock again

Hello all,

after Installing mysql I started the mysql daemon..
Then I tried to log in to my mysql database and got the message
could not find mysql.sock in /tmp.

In the mysql-configuration file /etc/my.cnf (in my redhat system 8.0)
I changed the place for the socket file from
"socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock" to "socket=/tmp/mysql.sock".
That doesn´t work.

What can I do?
Perhaps put a link ln -s /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock in
/tmp????

Oliver
