MariaDB secure installation Error 2002 after modifying /usr/local/etc/mysql/my.cnf about freebsd-nextcloud-setup-hardened

Looks like the mysql_secure_installation script has been updated to use the default installation location. You can either change the socket value in my.cnf back to /var/run/mysql/mysql.sock, and replace all references throughout the rest of the guide to /tmp/mysql.sock to this new path, or add the --socket flag to the mysql_secure_installation command:

mysql_secure_installation --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock

I'll be updating it to pass the socket flag for consistency with the rest of the guide, with the more substantial revision to /var/run/mysql/mysql.sock at some stage in the future
