I am trying to install MySQL 8 on an Ubuntu (that is a Windows Subsystem for Linux) without any prompts.
I have the following script:
apt-key add --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 5072E1F5
echo 'deb http://repo.mysql.com/apt/ubuntu/ bionic mysql-8.0' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mysql.list
apt-get update --yes
apt-get install --yes debconf-utils
echo 'mysql-community-server mysql-community-server/root-pass password' | sudo debconf-set-selections
echo 'mysql-community-server mysql-community-server/re-root-pass password' | sudo debconf-set-selections
apt-get install --yes mysql-community-server
(partly constructed thanks to the answers in this question)
and it appears to work fine, except that it prompts me to select authentication method... I want to pick the mysql_native_password and do so without being prompted interactively.
I'm guessing the solution is another debconf-set-selections setting, but... In addition to asking what is it for this case... Is there a reference of all possible options somewhere?
There's also the issue that apt-get says that a symlink is created for the service, and yet the service isn't created... But that's not really a showstopper, as I'm using WSL merely as a test ground for an actual Ubuntu server, where I'd think this would work... hopefully.
EDIT1: Nevermind the original question... I managed to find an answer here
which led to stumble upon this dockerfile
So I ended up adding
echo 'mysql-community-server mysql-server/default-auth-override select Use Legacy Authentication Method (Retain MySQL 5.x Compatibility)' | sudo debconf-set-selections
is the line I need...
HOWEVER, the other, possibly WSL specific issue remains... that is, no MySQL service is created. I should note that while I have MySQL outside of WSL, the server is turned off, specifically so that the WSL could run.
I get the following output upon the install, near the end:
Setting up mysql-community-server (8.0.16-2ubuntu18.04) ...
update-alternatives: using /etc/mysql/mysql.cnf to provide /etc/mysql/my.cnf (my.cnf) in auto mode
dpkg: error processing package mysql-community-server (--configure):

Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.27-3ubuntu1) ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
mysql-community-server
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
And the only thing I can find related to that is suggestions of complete reinstall, but even reinstalling the WSL instance doesn't fix this.
EDIT2: Adding
apt-get dist-upgrade --yes --allow-remove-essential --allow-change-held-packages
Fixes the above error, and yet despite there not being any errors, the service is still not created.
I sort of fixed the missing mysql service by copying the /etc/init.d/mysql file from another WSL instance (mysql 8 installed through an upgrade) to /etc/init.d
sudo service mysql start
returns a [fail], but the mysql daemon runs just fine.
Otherwise, I've seen people achieve this more cleanly by installing a lower version from MySQL's repo first, and then upgrade to mysql 8.

How do I uninstall MySQL in WSL?
I have version 5.7.4 installed. After reading over the changes for upgrading to the latest 5.7.x version so I could upgrade to 8.0 (there's a minimum requirement of 5.7.9 to upgrade to 8.0), I figured it would be easier to just uninstall MySQL and start over (I have nothing worth saving from playing around with it previously).
I tried running the following commands (as per this post and this one) and got the following responses:
$ sudo apt remove mysql mysql-server
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package mysql
$ sudo apt-get remove --purge *mysql*
zsh: no matches found: *mysql*
$ sudo apt-get purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common mysql-server-core-* mysql-client-core-*
zsh: no matches found: mysql-server-core-*
After running those, I'm still able to start and stop my server with the following commands (note that these are not necessarily the usual systemd commands because I'm in WSL2):
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
Unsure if this is relevant, but even when the server is running I'm not seeing the socket when I enter sudo find / -type s as suggested by this post.
I'm wondering it'd be okay to just delete what files I can find manually, but that seems like a bad idea
/var/lib/mysql/
/usr/share/mysql/
/usr/lib/mysql/
The problem was using zsh as a shell. I successfully removed MySQL with sudo apt-get remove --purge '*mysql*'
on running django-server with django==1.9 and pgsql 9.5, virtualenv=15.0.9 with python2.7 installation no-wheel no-site-packages on ubuntu 14.04
no previous mysql installation prior mariadb==10.2 after which this error occured. tried purging mariadb then, installing mysql=5.6 from dpkg but it didn't solved it either, then reinstalled mariadb==10.2 for sudo apt-get install libmariadbclient but it didn't solved it either.
Any help would be appreciated, ....
getting the below error
Solved.
a gis plugin was being used in my project postgis and postgres used in project.
for that the very initial postgres installation must have put libmysqlclient_18 version defined by its own customizations.
after mariadb installation, the libmysqlclient.so.18 should have been updated, hindering the older linkage and setups.
ran the mysql/mariadb cleaning with this post
https://askubuntu.com/a/172516/735971
installed mariadb again, got the gis support and issue is resolved.
link to gis support libraries:
http://scigeo.org/articles/howto-install-latest-geospatial-software-on-linux.html
update:
got another error during running django server with postgresql==9.5 and postgis==2.2
Could not find the GEOS library (tried "geos_c", "GEOS"). Try setting GEOS_LIBRARY_PATH in your settings.
traced to evidence that mariadb-common files and libmysqlclient/libmariadblclient was still cached in apt-get
evertime I installed postgresql or any of its extension now, it used the cached copy of libmysqlclient.so.18 from mariadb.
so I removed all the unused dpkg configs
sudo dpkg --purgeCOLUMNS=300 dpkg -l "" | egrep "^rc" | cut -d\ -f3
CAUTION: it can remove all the unused package, for only mariadb related files you can do
sudo dpkg --purgeCOLUMNS=300 dpkg -l "maria" | egrep "^rc" | cut -d\ -f3
Also removed postgresql for the next clean installation overriding any traces of compiled libmysqlclient if any.
then removed any apt-repo related to mariadb from /etc/apt/sources.list followed by sudo apt-get update.
then apt-get autoremove and apt-get clean to clean everything.
then sudo apt-get install -y postgresql-9.5 postgresql-9.5-postgis-2.2 postgresql-9.5-pgrouting postgresql-contrib-9.5
but i must say mariadb V10.2 still clashes with other installations and system libraries like it clashed in prior versions for libmysqlclient.so
I decided to sign up to askubuntu.com, because i really need an advice from experts: I made, with mkusb, a persistent USB Live installation of Ubuntu 16.10, since I'd like to have a portable development environment. Everything went good, and I'm writing from that Live right now.
Now the question: I managed to install apache2, but after hours and hours of searching in the web, and also on this site, I cannot still properly install MySQL server. After re-executing many time the installation, I continue to get this error:
Setting up mysql-server-5.7 (5.7.17-0ubuntu0.16.10.1) ...
ERROR: Unable to start MySQL server:
mysqld: error while loading shared libraries: libaio.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Please take a look at https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/MySQL/FAQ for tips on fixing common upgrade issues.
Once the problem is resolved, run apt-get --fix-broken install to retry.
dpkg: error processing package mysql-server-5.7 (--configure):

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of mysql-server:

No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup error from a previous failure.
Errors were encountered while processing:
mysql-server-5.7
mysql-server
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
And if I run
sudo mysqld --initialize
The terminal still reports
mysqld: error while loading shared libraries: libaio.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
So i thought to search for this "libaio.so.1" as well, and I finished up installing the libraries "libaio1" and "libaio-dev" (which seems to be the same). The result, however didn't change even if those libraries are correctly installed.
Is this caused from the fact that I'm in a LiveUSB? Or is there another procedure to install/make MySQL recognize (since it's already installed, and I verified that the file exists) libaio.so.1?
I really hope you can help me, because i tried everything. I apologize in advance for any possible mistake made in this question. Thank you.
Oh, and there is an unanswered duplicate on the Ubuntu community made by me, so feel free to remove this question if it stays unanswered. Thank you in advance again.
After more many hours of research, i found that the problem wasn't the LiveUSB or the library itself. The problem was AppArmor, who blocked MySQL to use that library. So I disabled it:
sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor stop
sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor teardown
sudo update-rc.d -f apparmor remove
And a not-so-orthodox way, I completely removed AppArmor, to prevent future problems with:
sudo apt-get purge apparmor
Then I uninstalled and reinstalled MySQL Server flawlessy. It works!
If you got here while installing MariaDB, you can install the libaio1 using below command. The above solutions did not work for me
sudo apt-get install libaio1
Reference is here
maybe you should uninstall mysql and install it again using these command
remove mysql -
sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
reinstall
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
sudo mysql_install_db
sudo /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation
Because doing this:-
sudo apt-get remove --purge zoneminder
sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/mysql
sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2*
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo rm -r /var/www/*
sudo rm -r /etc/apache2/*
sudo rmdir /var/www
sudo rmdir /etc/apache2
sudo rm -r /opt/zm
sudo rm /etc/apache2/conf.d/zoneminder.conf
sudo dpkg --configure -a
reboot hardware
sudo apt-get install zoneminder
produces this error:-

Originally zoneminder installed "first time" Ok on this 32bit "mint 14" machine using just the single apt-get install zoneminder command from here:-
http://www.tuxradar.com/content/build-your-own-surveillance-zoneminder
but when I tried to upgrade a couple of days ago to version 1.26.2 by compiling manually, I messed it up.
How can I remove zoneminder completely so that the original "clean" install works again?
No need to do any of the above, from this link:-
http://pjpramod.blogspot.co.uk/2010/01/starting-zoneminder-cant-open-config.html
So I did this:-
sudo rm -r /usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2/*
and then the install completes OK - but the popups no longer work (don't open at all or open in the same window), so don't do that.
Finally I abandoned re-installing the pre-built package (1.25.0 - or was it 1.25.2?) and downloaded the 1.26.3 tar file and unpacked it and cd'ed into it...
...and ./configure was missing...
...but if you run bootstrap.sh
./bootstrap.sh
then that (and some other things) magically appear.
Then did this:
sudo ./configure --prefix=/opt/zm --with-mysql=/usr --with-ffmpeg=/usr --with-webuser=www-data --with-webgroup=www-data --disable-debug --disable-crashtrace --enable-mmap=yes --with-webdir=/var/www --with-cgidir=/usr/lib/cgi-bin ZM_SSL_LIB=openssl
and it configured OK.
then this
sudo make
followed by this:-
sudo make install
and it installed OK but when I tried to run zoneminder I got database errors so did something like this to delete zm:-
mysql -uroot -pyourPassWord
mysql > drop database zm;
mysql > quit;
and this to recreate it (I know nothing about databases, this is monkey-see, monkey-do from here):-
mysql -u root -pyourPassWord
>create database zm;
>exit
mysql -u root -pyourPassWord zm < db/zm_create.sql
mysql -u root -pyourPassWord zm
>grant select,insert,update,delete on zm.* to 'zmuser'#localhost identified by 'zmpass';
>quit
mysqladmin -u root -pyourPassWord reload
and it then worked OK (I am running zm like this:-)
sudo /etc/init.d/zm start
And while trying to figure out what link between apache and zm did (and how apache works etc) I discovered that you only need to do this:-
localhost/index.php
to bring up zoneminder, working OK, in my browser - Yee Haw! Not bad for two day's effort and one divorce.
But I could only get zmpkg.pl to work by doing this:-
sudo /opt/zm/bin/zmpkg.pl
and not this:-
sudo zmpkg.pl
Because, I learn, that that $PATH is defined "globally" for sudo and therefore my adding /opt/zm/bin in my .bashrc file had no effect so then, rather than put zmpkg.pl into /usr/local/sbin (or one of those paths in "global" $PATH) I insert a link instead like this:-
sudo ln -s /opt/zm/bin/zmpkg.pl /usr/local/sbin/zmpkg.pl
and it works! so now e.g.
sudo zmpkg.pl status
works again.
Does anyone know how all this should be done? E.g. so that
localhost/zm
works again?
Update on 20th December 2013: I just upgraded to verion 1.26.5 successfully on this mint 14 system by repeating some of the above instructions i.e.
1) Stop zoneminder.
2) Download version 1.26.5
3) Ran the ./bootstrap.sh script (as mentioned above).
4) Ran the ./configure... script (as mentioned above).
5) Ran the make (as mentioned above - but got errors)...
So I read the README and copied and pasted this from it (line 24):
root#host:~# aptitude install -y apache2 mysql-server php5 php5-mysql build-essential libmysqlclient-dev libssl-dev libbz2-dev libpcre3-dev libdbi-perl libarchive-zip-perl libdate-manip-perl libdevice-serialport-perl libmime-perl libpcre3 libwww-perl libdbd-mysql-perl libsys-mmap-perl yasm subversion automake autoconf libjpeg8-dev libjpeg8 apache2-mpm-prefork libapache2-mod-php5 php5-cli libphp-serialization-perl libgnutls-dev libjpeg8-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev libavutil-dev libv4l-dev libtool ffmpeg libnetpbm10-dev libavdevice-dev libmime-lite-perl dh-autoreconf dpatch;
and then did a
sudo make clean
and then repeated 4) and 5) above and it compiled OK.
6) Did the "sudo make install" OK (i.e. on top of the old version I guess).
7) Then did all the rest of the "as mentioned above" instructions to delete zm from the database (after trying to zm unsuccessfully) and re-inserted it and then it started OK via the "zmpkg.pl start" script as version 1.26.5
8) As before I then had to manually reset up all cameras and password and users and zones but at least it all worked "first time"
I would suggest that you have to uninstall all the packages which include LAMP(apache, mysql, php) and zoneminder.
use this command to remove these packages.
sudo aptitude purge <pkg-name>
Then you have to go to zoneminder manual installation directory (say /usr/src). and use command
sudo make clean
sudp updatedb
After this you can start normal install procedure.
It was working fine before and I was configuring the email server when I restarted the mysql (via /etc/init.d/mysql restart). I'm pretty sure that I did not touch anything in there but I can remember doing a failed apt-get update prior to that.
Now my problem starts when all of a sudden it stops and won't even start. I searched on google and even went far to purging everything and doing a new install. But still it won't let me install mysql properly.
I've tried (after doing a remove --purge):
sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.5 mysql-client-5.5
and it prompts me for a root passsword, but returns me the following error:
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.
and I have the following logs too:

any help? Thanks in advance.
this question was having the same issue it solved by uninstalling but before that he tried to set the password that is the question and then he tried to solve it in chat maybe when you try to set a password it will be solved , just try
Update: Type the following commands in your terminal in order to make a complete remove for mysql.
sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
Also you need to remove the /var/lib/mysql folder if exist by typing the following command
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/mysql
Then follow the official ubuntu documentation to install. and don't forget to set your mysql password during installation.
Also see this question its similar to the error you have got during the installation process.
I experienced this problem.
maybe aptitude have some config for package.
I think this problem of interference
Although, this method is purge command .
try running.
check installed mysql package
dpkg --get-selections|grep mysql
remove
apt-get remove --purge [installed package]
apt-get autoremove
apt-get autoclean
aptitude purge [installed package]
aptitude clean
aptitude update
aptitude -f install
aptitude full-upgrade
