Most installscripts will leave things like configfiles untouched. If you
build from source you should copy the distributed INI file to a useful
place. You probably didn't take this last step. Take a look a
www.devshed.com for an instruction on how to setup MySQL, PHP and Apache.
Your old config file has the old location you could alter this manually.
Change the location of mysql.sock and restart apache. Use Pico or your
favorite text editor to edit your php.ini
Although I didn't try it myself (no need to do so since my favorite distro
doesn't install anything I don't want it to) I think you should be fine
after changing the php.ini file.
