[freeside] MySql Help

Interesting.  If that's actually something people need to do Freeside's
configuration stuff will have to be renamed.  I don't think so, though.
Note the following paragraph in the documentation:

                Usually there's no need for this option, unless you are
                using another location for the socket than that built into
                the client.


Your problem is because you're using a MySQL client library
(libmysqlclient.so) that doesn't match up with your MySQL server, for
example if you installed one from RPM and the other from source, or
vice-versa.
