Excuse me, but this issue is not 'expired' for me. I just came across it this morning. Furthermore, when you say this is a 'configuration' issue, you could be a little more helpful / specific than just pointing the the community forum - assuming you have some idea what the alleged configuration issue is.
2. I decided to sudo apt-get install mysql because nothing else I was trying with 5.6 was working. I had errors like: error-2002-hy000-can-t-connect-to-local-mysql-server-through-socket-var- run-mysqld-mysqld-sock Only to find out I had no var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock. In fact, I had no /var/run/mysqld !!! I read about checking /etc/mysql/my.cnf. But the only uncommented line was !includedir /etc/mysql/conf.d/. And all all conf.d/mysql.conf has in it is: [mysql] By the way, I DID NOT configure any of this. This is how I got it from you. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1623440 Title: package mysql-server-5.7 5.7.15-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1623440/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
