exim eximCould not create INET socket: Address already in use IO:ocket::INET: Address already in use

What is the INET socket?Is it same as internet socket ?
Anybody knows what the error is?How to solve it?
B'cause on my sever already mysql in't working with error

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

Please help !!!
Thank you.

This states somethign about it being a stand alone daemon, so you need to look in log files, hope this helps?
