Package: mysql-server-5.5 Version: 5.5.44-0+deb8u1 Severity: grave File: /etc/init.d/mysql
I have circumvented the problem reported in #798743 by removing if [ -x "/etc/init.d/mysql" ]; then update-rc.d mysql defaults 19 21 >/dev/null invoke-rc.d mysql start || exit $? fi from mysql-server-5.5.postinst and try to start the server by hand. The command update-rc.d mysql defaults 19 21 >/dev/null works, but invoke-rc.d mysql start yields Job for mysql.service failed. See 'systemctl status mysql.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details. invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed. root@cauda:/home/jsbien# systemctl -l status mysql.service ● mysql.service - LSB: Start and stop the mysql database server daemon Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/mysql) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sat 2015-09-19 08:24:50 CEST; 57s ago Process: 4175 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/mysql start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Sep 19 08:24:50 cauda mysql[4175]: Starting MySQL database server: mysqld . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . failed!
