Hello Everybody!

I am experimenting with a small Openstack cloud, and I have encountered a 
problem on multiple occasions where the MySQL database on one of my controllers 
fails to purge old mysql-bin.$NUMBER binary log files. These log files (among 
others) end up completely filling the root OS directory, causing any writes to 
the database to fail. I cannot log into mysql to purge the log files due to the 
following error: 

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

I have checked, and the socket file definitely does not exist. I can remove the 
logs by hand, but any attempts to restart the database afterwards fail due to 
the above error. Has anybody encountered this problem before and could anybody 
point me towards a solution?

Thanks!
