When I run

# mysql

I get this error:

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

What do I need to do? The install of MySQL was done as part of the Centos setup.
----
as root...

/sbin/service mysqld start

socket isn't available for connection unless mysqld is running

When I submit

# /sbin/service mysqld start

I get the message: mysqld unrecognized service

When I type in

# yum install mysql

I am told it is already installed. Also, the GUI for services does not have mysql listed. How I can tell if mysql is truly installed?
----
yum install mysql        # will install client but not the server

yum install mysql-server # will install the server
