Clean MySQL install with errors

Wed Nov 14, 2012 11:21 am

Help needed here.

I have installed a mysql-server but it cannot run. Initially I was setting password during install and I got a configuration error so I run apt-get purge mysql-server* etc. and did a new install with no password.

When I complete however I still get the same error (attached) and there are no records in the logs to find that the issue might be. For mysql --version I get {mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.24, for debian-linux-gnu (armv7l) using readline 6.2}

What can be the problem.

I was having the same problem too.
After the error (with password), I tried an install without that also failed.
I then tried a remove, which did not work.
I then tried a purge, and in the process, the server started successfully and was then able to query INFORMATION_SCHEMA.
It does not make sense, and I don't know how it worked.
