you can connext to mysql over tcp/ip and over a unix domain socket
(slightly faster). /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock is the unix domain
socket. Obviously this socket is not available in the jail.

try to connect over tcp/ip (use host localhost) or use a 'bind mount' to
make the socket available in the jail

mount /var/run/mysqld /my/jail/var/run/mysqld -o bind

what is your setup, and what is in the logs?
