This problem appears after a mysql update. I suppose I got problems during the installation.
This is the solution for solving this problem. sudo apt-get purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common mysql-client-5.5 mysql-server-5.5 sudo apt-get autoremove sudo apt-get autoclean sudo rm -rf /etc/mysql sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-common mysql-client This answer I got it thanks to askubuntu.com.
