sudo dpkg -r libmysqlclient20:i386
sudo dpkg -r libmysqlclient20:amd64
sudo dpkg -r libmysqlclient18:amd64
sudo dpkg -r mysql-common
sudo dpkg -r mysql
apt upgrade and aptitude --fix-missing and nothing worked
Thanks
That file is provided by dbconfig-common, so while I have no idea why it's missing in the first place, you should be able to fix it with apt-get install --reinstall dbconfig-common.

what should I do here ??
i tried these cmds and still the error appears:
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get purge mysql*
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.7
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Try something like this. This helped me:
sudo service mysql stop
sudo apt-get --purge remove mysql*
sudo rm -rf /etc/mysql/
Then I reinstalled it:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install mariadb-server
sudo service mysql start
sudo mysql -u root -p
secret
sudo mysql -u root -p

I installed Mysql5.7 long time ago, afterwards I uninstalled it and installed MariaDB disabling apparmor (mysql) profile.
Now I uninstalled MariaDB and I'm trying to install mysql5.7 and I got this error:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I get this error when I use sudo dpkg --configre -a too.
I install the package using sudo apt install mysql-server.
I tried to follow some guide online, I removed /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server-5.7.postinst purged mariadb, mysql and tried a lot of things.
Ok, I solved in this way:
I used Software & Updates application to remove mariadb sources
executed the followings steps (ref https://askubuntu.com/a/934576):
sudo apt purge mysql-client-5.7 mysql-client-core-5.7 mysql-common mysql-server-5.7 mysql-server-core-5.7 mysql-server
sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade && sudo apt autoremove && sudo apt -f install
sudo apt install mysql-server
This fixed it for me (MySQL 8.0 - Ubuntu 20.04)
sudo apt-get purge mysql\* libmysql\*
sudo apt autoremove
But the package "mysql-client-core-8.0" don't uninstall, so...
sudo apt --fix-broken install
sudo apt-get --reinstall install mysql-client-core-8.0
sudo apt-get purge mysql\* libmysql\*
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mysql-server
No more errors!
Try this:
sudo dpkg -P mysql-server mysql-server-5.1
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get clean
dpkg -l | grep -i mysql
sudo rm -rvf /var/lib/mysql
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
The step dpkg -l | grep -i mysql will show you all mysql modules, which are installed. It should be empty before the next steps.
This error could also happen if the port (3306) is being used by another app. In my case, I had a docker container running mysql which was using the 3306 port. Hence my local mysql installation failed to configure.
$ sudo netstat -nltp | grep LISTEN | grep 3306
$ sudo netstat -nltp | grep LISTEN | grep 3306
tcp6 0 0 :::3306 :::* LISTEN 1017033/docker-prox
sudo apt purge --auto-remove mysql*
sudo rm -r /etc/mysql
sudo rm -r /var/lib/mysql*
sudo apt install mysql-client-8.0 mysql-server-8.0 --fix-broken -y
I ran the following command
wget http://repo.mysql.com/mysql-apt-config_0.8.9-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.8.9-1_all.deb
sudo apt-get update
all goes well but when i hit
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
It gives me following errors
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or
been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to
resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: mysql-server :
Depends: mysql-community-server (= 5.7.20-1ubuntu16.04) but it is not

broken packages.
To fix broken packages i did ran
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt-get update
but all in vain. Thanks to you guys in advance :)
To begin with, I deleted MySQL with:
sudo apt-get purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common mysql-server-core-* mysql-client-core-*
sudo rm -rf /etc/mysql /var/lib/mysql
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
Then I downloaded the .deb from oficial page and used the following commands:
curl -OL https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-apt-config_0.8.12-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i mysql-apt-config*
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mysql-server -y
At this point I had trouble because of Ubuntu eoan "incompability" (I'm using Ubuntu 19.10), displaying a message like: "The detected system (Debian jessie) is not supported by MySQL. If you believe the platform is compatible with one of the supported systems, one of the corresponding repositories may be selected". But I researched in MySQL bugs page and ran:
dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.8.13-1_all.deb
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mysql-server -y
When it finishes, you may check the installation with:
sudo systemctl status mysql.service
And you should see something like...
This worked for me, after trying solutions in StackExchange, none of which worked. I hope this helps! Looking for feedback if I did something wrong, thanks.

sudo apt-get purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common mysql-server-5.5 mysql-server-core-5.5
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
seems like there's an error with one of the packages being installed or that quite never installed properly in the past.

I somehow have messed up my MySQL on my Ubuntu server and cannot fix it. I have tried every single combination of apt-get remove --purge mysql-server, apt-get autoremove, apt-get purge, Googled for hours and nothing.
I have literally given up. Every time I try to reinstall I get error. I've had enough. I want to remove every single file associated with MySQL on my server.
I get this error every time I try to reinstall which seems to be common but not one "fix" has worked for me. I need to clean my system of everything MySQL.
Unable to set password for the MySQL "root" user
An error occurred while setting the password for the MySQL administrative user. This may have happened because the account already has a password, or
because of a communication problem with the MySQL server.
You should check the account's password after the package installation.
Please read the /usr/share/doc/mysql-server-5.5/README.Debian file for more information.
Please can someone give me a set of command to purge this ungodly database from my system before I do a fresh install of the server.

I have literally tried everything. Every single mysql file is removed and it still will not install properly.
To completly remove Mysql from Ubuntu :
sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
after this, if you are having issues with re installing, Try to remove Mysql files in :
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/mysql
I experienced a similar issue on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS after a MySQL update.
I started getting error: "Fatal error: Can't open and lock privilege tables: Incorrect file format 'user'" in /var/log/mysql/error.log
MySQL could not start.
I resolved it by removing the following directory: /var/lib/mysql/mysql
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/mysql/mysql
This leaves your other DB related files in place, only removing the mysql related files.
After running these:
sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
Then reinstalling mysql:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
It worked perfectly.
Different solution for those still having issues. Hopefully I can help those trying to reinstall Mysql. Note, It's a seek and destroy mission. So be weary. Assuming your root:
apt-get purge mysql*
apt-get purge dbconfig-common #the screen used for mysql password
find / -name *mysql* #delete any traces of mysql
#insert apt-get cleanups, autoremove,updates etc.
Originally, something leftover was interfering with my startup of mysqlserver-5.5. These commands ended up resolving the issue for myself.
The following works:
sudo apt-get --purge remove mysql-client mysql-server mysql-common
sudo apt-get autoremove
Use apt to uninstall and remove all MySQL packages:
$ sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common -y
$ sudo apt-get autoremove -y
$ sudo apt-get autoclean
Remove the MySQL folder:
$ rm -rf /etc/mysql
Delete all MySQL files on your server:
$ sudo find / -iname 'mysql*' -exec rm -rf {} \;
Your system should no longer contain default MySQL related files.
sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql*
Remove the MySQL packages fully from the target system.
sudo apt-get purge mysql*
Remove all mysql related configuration files.
sudo apt-get autoremove
Clean up unused dependencies using autoremove command.
sudo apt-get autoclean
To clear all local repository in the target system.
sudo apt-get remove dbconfig-mysql
If you also want to delete your local/config files for dbconfig-mysql then this will work.
This is what saved me. Apparently the depackager tries to put things in the wrong tmp folder.
https://askubuntu.com/a/248860
Remove /etc/my.cnf file and retry the installation, it worked for me for exactly same problem. :-)
remove mysql :
sudo apt -y purge mysql*
sudo apt -y autoremove
sudo rm -rf /etc/mysql
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/mysql*
Restart instance :
sudo shutdown -r now
I just had this same issue. It turns out for me, mysql was already installed and working. I just didn't know how to check.
$ ps aux | grep mysql
This will show you if mysql is already running. If it is it should return something like this:
mysql 24294 0.1 1.3 550012 52784 ? Ssl 15:16 0:06 /usr/sbin/mysqld
