[google-cloud-sql-discuss] running mysqlcheck: can't connect

With an sql instance running, in the shell when I run mysqlcheck db.sql I get

mysqlcheck: Got error: 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2 "No such file or directory") when trying to connect

I'm running this to find why my db won't import by process of elimination. My simplified version of it isn't even Application/x-sql type.
