Hi, thanks for the report. We're aware of the general issue (installation fails if service is disabled). It's also tracked here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1592669 The most likely solution for this is: If service is disabled but server isn't running: Start it in a more manual way, without networking, to run mysql_upgrade. If service is disabled but server _is_ running (meaning we can't start the new one); Print a warning asking the user to run mysql_upgrade after restarting.
