Install mysql-server, not mysql-client. You're getting that error because that file doesn't exist.

If you have both mysql-client and mysql-server installed and it doesn't work then there's something wrong with your configuration files.

have you created a mysql user? are you running a linux machine? Are you root when you try and start the service?

I made a python webserver and give the port 1010 and localhost is 127.0.1.1 but i didn't change configuration file

Try to cd into /var/run/mysqld and type ls. Show us the results of that.

There s only one file :-
mysqld.pid

Why is this in `Operating SYstems`? Also, you've given us close to no information; we need to know what operating system you're running, what MySQL version would be helpful, etc.
