Sure. The file 'error.log' is from /var/log/mysql/ I also attached many mysql.log.[x].gz, from /var/log/. The latest one has to do with the upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04. The others have to do with an upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10.
Also in /var/log/ are: mysql.err and mysql.log but they're both zero bytes. mysql.err is listed at Type 'Scala scale'. Scala here is not the programming language, but a program for generating musical scale and tuning schemes. Somehow linux, or maybe just nautilus, got cued that all .err have to do with the Scala program. I haven't used mysql since long before any of the problems referred to here. Probably not relevant: I had lots of trouble in May not getting the gui, starting spontaneously in Ubuntu 11.04, after upgrade to 11.10 and never resolved with 11.10, finally resolved after upgrade to 12.04.
