is that '*' really there? Because it seems like a strange thing to have.

Also, does the file '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exist?

This is normal, my servers say the same thing.

Can you try 'sudo koha-mysql instancename' to see if that works? Also
try it manually:
mysql -ukoha_instancename -p koha_instancename

(replacing instancename above with the name of your instance.)
