Epoxy would be much better.
Probably still won't survive direct soldering (most fast cure epoxy glues
don't have the same heat resistance as PCB material), but it will anchor
the connector better than CA.
With lifted pads or broken tracks it is always preferable to use a bit of
wire and make a connection to the next pad, or at least a substantial
undamaged stretch of track, rather than attempting a repair directly at the
lifted pad / break.

I have a piece of equipment where a trace was lifted. The part is still
attached and I would like to glue it down. The part is a socket for a
cable, and the plug is difficult to insert and remove. I will have to
solder the other pin which is the ground plane, and broke off, so the glue
has to survive that. I'll also need to add some structural solder on the
sides. Is cyanoacrylate a good idea here? Anything better than that?
Thanks.
